1. If you throw a hand to hit,
A hand in return will not miss.

2. So be thankful, as you were thanked,
For the kindness of its owner so nice.

3. When livelihood turned unkind,
And cruel livelihood took its place,

4. The young master bought
With faith so immense.

5. And wanted to secure
That which he had bought,

6. She said: Sell me and make
My price and my loyalty your intercessor.

7. I cannot bear seeing you
Broke, I cannot bear.

8. I sold my love
While my heart was in pain.

9. And I went after the buyer
So the minds of all went.

10. O you who saw the deer
Ravaged by the wolves horde!

11. A wonderful creation, like angels
Adorned by a wonderful creation.

12. And then her new master
Fell ill, and fell quick.

13. And in freeing her he instructed
For the manners she had and so unique.

14. And he passed away, so the bird flew
Free to a fortress so strong.

15. And the wed wife slipped away
Seeking the loyal groom.

16. So they met after despair
And this is how the artful act.
