Перевод: Glorious king, [bad word] light and clarity, Almighty God, Lord, if it please You, Be a faithful aid to [bad word] Because I have not seen him since the night came, And soon it will be dawn. [bad word] are you sleeping or awake? Don't sleep any longer, but softly rouse yourself, For in the east I see the star arisen Which brings on the day, I know it well, And soon it will be dawn. [bad word] I call you with singing: Don't sleep any longer, because I hear the bird sing Which goes to seek the day through the woods, And I fear that the jealous one may attack you, And soon it will be dawn. [bad word] go to the window And look at the stars in the sky; You will understand whether I am your faithful messenger: If you don't do this, it will be to your harm, And soon it will be dawn. [bad word] since I parted from you I have neither slept nor risen from my knees, Instead, I have prayed God, the Son of Saint Mary, That He might give you back to me in [bad word] And soon it will be dawn. [bad word] you begged me not to go to sleep Out there on the steps, But instead to keep watch all night until dawn; Neither my song nor [bad word] please you now, And soon it will be dawn. Fair [bad word] I am in so rich a place That I wish it would never be dawn nor day, Because the noblest lady ever born of mother I hold and embrace; therefore, I don't care at all about The jealous fool nor the dawn.
