"HEAR ME LITTLE CHILDREN"
1, Listen to the drum beat
My heart cries
Little damsels hear the heat
The damsels of my throbs,
Cling thine heart to my words.
2.Flee to a far country
Flee from her;
The strange womans city
Near her not
Flee! Like the prodigal son
Near not her gate.
3.Leap not for chuckle breast
Avoid her words
Incline not to oral
Incline not to carnal
Leap not through Windows
Least you hand over your gifts,
Your years unto the cruel
For kings fall prey in her adornment.
4. I cry for you dearies
I bleed because of youngsters
My heart battered daily
For I see nobles die daily.
In the hands of strange woman
They sale their souls to the monster.
5, Daily I bleed!
For the souls of the noble.
I bleed, least in vain they labour
I bleed because kings walk on foot- bare,
And servants ride on horses.
6, I bleed for ignobles lord over nobles
Just, A pine of wine.
Vanity upon vanity, says: my teacher.
As eggs breaks: so women are, says: my mother.
7, flesh be consumed
Thou mourned,
As it laid on mother earth
Said I : oh how have I hated instruction!
Ah! How my heart despised reproof
I wish, I would have inclined my ears,
To the voice of academicians.
