Deus est Deus pauperum.

For a valiant knight, men called Boncoeur,

Had hope he should not long endure,

And gathered to him much good folk,

Hardy hearts to break the yoke.

Deus est Deus pauperum.

But Boncoeur deemed it would be vain

To strive his guarded house to gain;

Therefore, within a little while,

He set himself to work by guile.
