Cling-clang, my anklets chime, cling-clang, they sing,
What shall I do, my friend, my breath, my sister blocks the way?
Cling-clang, my anklets chime, cling-clang, they sing.

With every step, they ring, nan-nan-nan,
With every step, they ring, nan-nan-nan,
The cool breeze whispers, san-nan-nan,
The cool breeze whispers, san-nan-nan, the season a dark cloud.
Cling-clang, my anklets chime, cling-clang, they sing,
What shall I do, my friend, my breath, my sister blocks the way?
Cling-clang, my anklets chime, cling-clang, they sing.

My friends, they understand not, my friends, they understand not,
They understand not, they understand not, none know my plight.
None know my plight, without you, love, my heart cannot thrive.
Cling-clang, my anklets chime, cling-clang, they sing,
What shall I do, my friend, my breath, my sister blocks the way?
Cling-clang, my anklets chime, cling-clang, they sing.
