Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.
Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.

I shall become a cuckoo, hidden in the garden's bloom,
I shall become a seeker, searching for you branch by branch.
Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.
I shall become a fish, concealed within the lake's soft gleam,
I shall become a fisherman, drawing you in, within my net's dream.
Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.

I shall become a serpent, lost in thorny, hidden place,
I shall become a charmer, luring you with music's grace.
Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.
I shall become a maiden, sheltered by a husband's embrace,
I shall become the bridegroom, drawing you close, with love's deep space.
Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.
Oh, flute-bearer, dark-hued one, your flute's call, my anklets answer.
