[Translation.]

She is limed, she is limed,

My bird is limed,

With the gum of the forest.

We make a great circuit,

Outskirting the feast.

You shall feast on king’s bounty:

No fear of the tabu, all’s free.

Free! and By whom?

Free by the word of the king.

Then a free rein to mirth!

Banish the kill-joy

Who eats the king’s dainties!

Feast then till replete

With the good king’s meat!
