Then will the lady's trouble cease,

Then will her heart have joy and peace,

When wandering in the wood I wear

Deerskin, and bark, and matted hair.

Nor shall by me his heart be grieved

Whose choice approved, whose mind conceived

This counsel which I follow. No,

Forth to the forest will I go.

'Tis Fate, Sumitrás son, confess,

That sends me to the wilderness.
