Wb sib ceg tsis muaj ntxiv,
Hlub,
Siv zog thiab tsis quaj ntsuag:
Tag nrho yuav raws li ua ntej, Hlub,
- Thaum pw tsaug zog!
Dab tsi yog lo qus li cov lus?
Kuv thiab koj
Hauv kev sib cav, raws li cov noog muaj,
Hawk on bough!
Pom lub zeem muag soj ntsuam
Thaum peb hais lus!
Hush thiab npog cov lus,
Cheek ntawm sab plhu!
Dab tsi yog cuav li qhov tseeb,
Tsis tseeb rau koj?
Qhov twg nab tus hniav yog
Tawm tsob ntoo -
Qhov twg lub kua reddens
Tsis yog pry--
Thov kom peb poob peb Edens,
Tswv yim thiab kuv.
Ua ib tug vaj tswv thiab tuav kuv
Nrog lub povhaum!
Ua ib tug txiv neej thiab quav kuv
Nrog koj txhais caj npab!
Qhia kuv, tsuas qhia,
Hlub Raws li kuv mam mus
Kuv yuav hais koj lus,
Hlub,
Xav tias koj xav--
Ntsib, yog tias koj xav tau nws,
Ob leeg xav,
Laying cev nqaij daim tawv thiab ntsuj plig Hauv koj txhais tes.
Tias yuav tsum rau-tag kis
Tsis yog hmo ntuj:
Kuv yuav tsum faus qhov kev tu siab
Tawm ntawm pom:
Yuav tsum me ntsis quaj,
Hlub, (Foolish kuv!)
Thiab kom tsaug tsaug zog,
Hlub,
Hlub los ntawm koj.
