Tylem wytrwał, tyle wycierpiałem,
Chyba śmiercią bole się ukoją;
Jeślim płochym obraził zapałem,
Tę obrazę krwią okupię moją.

Za coś dla mnie tyle ulubiona?
Za com z twoim spotkał się wejrzeniem?
Jednąm wybrał z tylu dziewcząt grona,
I ta cudzym przykuta pierścieniem!

And by her ring she belongs to another!
