1. Did I not make you laugh with my story
And sell sleep for wakefulness?

2. My ignorance was that of a lion
Ignorance is not my character

3. And I forbade a youth my forbiddings
From love, both awake and drunk

4. He said: Do you not see him bowing
His head, harder than rock?

5. A gazelle hunting an ox
Leave the ox in Hell

6. And rush to split its hoof
And leave it with the cattle
