Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGAHBIJKLHIMBNO PIQIRB| Why do you whisper so faintly in | A |
| my ears O Death my Death | B |
| When the flowers droop in the | C |
| evening and cattle come back to their | D |
| stalls you stealthily come to my side | E |
| and speak words that I do not | F |
| understand | G |
| Is this how you must woo and win | A |
| me with the opiate of drowsy murmur | H |
| and cold kisses O Death my Death | B |
| Will there be no proud ceremony | I |
| for our wedding | J |
| Will you not tie up with a wreath | K |
| your tawny coiled locks | L |
| Is there none to carry your banner | H |
| before you and will not the night be | I |
| on fire with your red torch lights | M |
| O Death my Death | B |
| Come with your conch shells sound | N |
| ing come in the sleepless night | O |
| Dress me with a crimson mantle | P |
| grasp my hand and take me | I |
| Let your chariot be ready at my | Q |
| door with your horses neighing impatiently | I |
| Raise my veil and look at my face | R |
| proudly O Death my Death | B |
