Plötzlich naht Cassander - wütend Ob des nächtgen Virtuosen - Mit groteskem Riesenbogen Kratzt Pierrot auf seiner Bratsche. Von sich wirft er jetzt die Bratsche: Mit der delikaten Linken Faßt den Kahlkopf er am Kragen - Träumend [spielt]1 er auf der Glatze Mit groteskem Riesenbogen.

以怪異的巨弓 皮耶羅刮擦著他的中提琴， 就像單腳站立的鸛鳥一般， 他悲傷地挑出一聲撥弦奏。 突然間 卡桑德靠近－憤怒地 接近這夜間的高超演奏－ 以怪異的巨弓 皮耶羅刮擦著他的中提琴。 這會兒 他把中提琴丟在一旁： 以他細緻優雅的左手 攫住卡桑德的衣領－ 他作夢般地演奏著這顆光頭 以怪異的巨弓。
