L’âme brûle comme ses ondes qui descendent vers Matsouko

Viens, exauce ses prières.

2. Dame Ise
 (Sung text)

Language: Polish (Polski) 
Czy wciąż samotna będę się błąkała
I nigdy, nigdy już cię nie zobaczę,
I dnie i noce wśród łez tonę cała
Ach ludzie stali się dla mnie jak skała
Cóż ich obchodzi życie me tułacze.

2. Dame Isé
 (Sung text)

Language: French (Français) 
Toujours, toujours serai-je solitaire,
et ne te reverrai-je plus jamais ?
Et jour et nuit je me noie dans les larmes
Ah, les gens sont pour moi durs comme pierres
Que les regarde ma vie vagabonde.

Schou schou doucement le vent va
d’Arima allant à Ino
il caresse l’herbe fine.
Murmurant ton nom mon adoré
Le doux bruit vers moi s’envole.

Le vent d’automne souffle des mots ;

Mon cœur est plein d’angoisse, 
je suis allé dans les champs.
Pâle s’annonce l’automne.
Comme un fantôme elle se glisse 
et porte ses douleurs funéraires.
