Do you hear castanets sound,
Darling, in the nearby grove?
Come with a lighthearted sole,
Fly cheerfully through the rows.

Oh after this day's sultriness
It's lovely to rest here in the moss,
Even the almond trees flowers
Fall duly into my lap.

Does not the loud laughter lure you,
Not the silvery sounds?
It's sweeter in the cool shade
To listen to its reverberation.

Through the leaves swaying grapes
See, the fleeting couples dance.
Look in the dew on fragrant flowers
The moonlight is reflected.

Lovely come, bring me the evening glow.
Sweet tranquility, tenderly the sound of the flute calls.
Alright, I'll give in, stay by your side.
Here at the cool stream, under the canopy of leaves.

But as a reward my sweetheart gives
Me a sign of her favor,
If I lie here in the moss
Submissively and patiently;

Well, here you have a flower,
That I found here in the grass,
The reward is more than enough
If given by the hand of the beloved.

Well, you frivolous girl, can you assume
That a flower is enough for me?
If it doesn't mean more to you than a treasure,
Then your love is lies and deception.

But for my staying her obediently
I would hope, a kiss is mine!
Should I have to buy my peace so dearly?
I'd rather dance on the slope of the field.

Lovely come, let my begging soften your heart.
Only at the dance, I shall give you my hand.
O how fast you are tired of rest!
Girl's moods change like the wind.
