Early in the morning birds are singing
Those golden hairs are kneaded with honey
Black is the colour of those weakened1 brows
Here came the beloved of this heart of mine
In the morning partridge goes up to the hill
As it swings, its feathers reach to the ground
I have a fear of my lover going to the wilderness
Here came the beloved of this heart of mine
My lover is gussied up again
She has worn the red and green so she has swung.
Let my arms break!2 how fast did they descend
Open your eyes, open them, my beloved is here
