The curtain drawn, I saw my love lie sleeping;
The curtain drawn, I saw my love lie sleeping;
Thrice happy was that peeping,  
Thrice happy was that peeping,

preserves my life and keeps my soul from dying.  
preserves my life and keeps my soul from dying.  
Of thousand joys, missing her, I had missed all,  
Of thousand joys, missing her, I had missed all,  
whose sight revives me more than ruby pearl and crystal.
whose sight revives me more than ruby pearl and crystal.}}

The curtain drawn, I saw my love lie sleeping;
Thrice happy was that peeping,
for viewing her sweet lying,
preserves my life and keeps my soul from dying.
Of thousand joys, missing her, I had missed all,
whose sight revives me more than ruby pearl and crystal.
