There was a boy she liked to see
who accompanied her
there was a silent place in a wood
where the two of them stayed
she lay and looked to the (circle of) stars
the hair in moist/damp moss
the boy laid clumsily
the hand on her lap/womb
he touched her
seduced her without love
he touched her
seduced her without love
Another one came who took her with him
to white and pure linnen
In this linnen, she thought,
I want to be buried.
He kissed her skin with lust
and was almost frightened/startled
how she - so young, so feverishly hot
and shakingly held him
he touched her
seduced her without love
he touched her
seduced her without love
A third one came and a forth
it didn't hurt anymore
the cold was creeping slowly
from head to toe
and when the fifth one went away from her
she froze completely
the fever never came back
and her hair went gray/grey
he touched her
seduced her without love
he touched her
