I spoke to thee with a smile, thou didst not answer

Thy mouth is as a chord, of crimson music

Come hither O thou, is life not a smile?

I spoke to thee with a song, thou didst not listen

Thine eyes are as a vase, of divine silence

Come (come) hither O thou, is life not a song?

I spoke to thee, with a soul and thou didst not wonder thy

Face is as a dream locked in, white fragrance

Come hither O is life not love? Is life not love?

I speak to thee with a sword (with a sword, ooo ooo), and thou art silent

Thy breast is as a tomb (as a tomb, ooo ooo), softer than flowers

Come hither O thou (O thou), is love not death? Is love not death?

Is life not a, is life not a, is life not a, is love not

Is life not a, is life not a, is life not a, is love not

Is life not a (umm), is life not a (ooo ya), is life not a, is love not

Is life not a, is life not a (haaa ooo), is life not a, is love not (oh oh oh ooo)

Is love not death, is love not death (is life not death?)
