1. My neighbor has told me she's soon to depart
Early, she openly declared a noble aim

2. She decided on leaving when she saw me
Amassing wealth, welcoming nothing unseemly

3. My lady, forty springs shouldn't make you doubt me
I'm heir to glory and paternal grace of soul

4. How strange, I'm stunned by one who ties the knot
Yet time breeds qualms, aggregating dullards' role

5. And loss accrues to whomever fortune
Consigns to misery or eternal reign

6. Relish living, your daily bread is sure
No cool wind blows out candles lit aglow
