　　In your lamb's fur you saunter about;
　　In your fox's fur you hold your court.
　　How should I not think anxiously about you?
　　My toiled heart is full of grief.

　　Your lamb's fur, as if covered with ointment;
　　Glistens when the sun comes forth.

　　If I could but see the white cap,
　　And the earnest mourner worn to leanness! --
　　My toiled heart is worn with grief!
　　
　　If I could but see the white [lower] dress! --
　　My heart is wounded with sadness!
　　I should be inclined to go and live with the wearer!
　　
　　If I could but see the white knee-covers! --
　　Sorrow is knotted in my heart!
　　I should almost feel as of one soul with the wearer!

　　Am I pained to the core of my heart.

　　Who will loyally go to the west?
　　I will cheer him with good words.
