Let your work be bride Listen theA
guest has comeB
Do you hear he is gently shakingC
the chain which fastens the doorD
See that your anklets make no loudE
noise and that your step is not overF
hurried at meeting himG
Let your work be bride the guestH
had come in the eveningC
No it is not the ghostly wind brideI
do not be frightenedJ
It is the full moon on a night ofK
April shadows are pale in the courtL
yard the sky overhead is brightM
Draw your veil over your face ifN
you must carry the lamp to the doorD
if you fearO
No it is not the ghostly wind brideI
do not be frightenedJ
Have no word with him if you areP
shy stand aside by the door when youQ
meet himG
If he asks you questions and ifN
you wish to you can lower you eyesR
in silenceS
Do not let your bracelets jingleT
when lamp in hand you lead him inU
Have no words with him if your areP
shyV
Have you not finished you work yetW
bride Listen the guest has comeB
Have you not lit the lamp in theA
cowshedW
Have you not got ready the offeringC
basket for the evening serviceX
Have you not put the red luckyY
mark at the parting of your hair andW
done your toilet for the nightW
O bride do you hear the guest hasZ
comeB
Let your work beY
