When your girl friends go laughing by the road.

"Come in haste this dusk; I have become your nightingale,

And the young girls leave me alone because of you.

I give you the poppy of my mouth and my fallen hair."

Come in haste this dusk, dear child.

"I have dishevelled and spread out my hair for you;

Take my wrist, for there is no shame

And my father has gone out.

Sit near me on this red bed quietly."

Come in haste this dusk, dear child.
