| Many men have loved the bells you fastened to the rein | |
| And everyone who wanted you | |
| They found what they will always want again | |
| Your beauty lost to you yourself just as it was lost to them | |
| Oh take this longing from my tongue | |
| Whatever useless things these hands have done | |
| Let me see your beauty broken down | |
| Like you would do for one you love | |
| Your body like a searchlight my poverty revealed | |
| I would like to try your charity | |
| Until you cry, now you must try my greed | |
| And everything depends upon how near you sleep to me | |
| Just take this longing from my tongue | |
| All the lonely things my hands have done | |
| Let me see your beauty broken down | |
| Like you would do for one your love | |
| Hungry as an archway through which the troops have passed | |
| I stand in ruins behind you | |
| With your winter clothes, your broken sandal straps | |
| I love to see you naked over there especially from the back | |
| Oh take this longing from my tongue | |
| All the useless things my hands have done | |
| Untie for me your hired blue gown | |
| Like you would do for one that you love | |
| You're faithful to the better man, | |
| I'm afraid that he left | |
| So let me judge your love affair in this very room | |
| Where I have sentenced mine to death | |
| I'll even wear these old laurel leaves that he's shaken from his head | |
| Just take this longing from my tongue | |
| All the useless things my hands have done | |
| Let me see your beauty broken down | |
| Like you would do for one you love | |
| Like you would do for one you love |
