Oh, you, the lost, the shadow's shade, where do you wander?
My beloved is angered, my beloved is angered.
He's angered, oh, he's angered!

The thief accuses the guard, a lie they proclaim.
Oh, my beloved is angered, my beloved is angered,
He's angered, oh!

Leave this chase, heartless one, why this deceit?
