The Clucking Hen

The clucking hen
scared in the yard
among the vines and cauliflower
she slipped away happily,
I think of her and look at you
who's already trembling because you know
that among the woods or in the flowers
soon you'll be mine.
Blush as much as you want
run, escape if you can
but
it won't help
but
it won't help.

There was a scruffy dog
chained up
who roared at me like a lion
but it was pathetic.
I think of him and look at me
threatening who knows what
masked as a lion
but I'm scared of you.
Blush if you can
I can roar if you want
but
what will happen
but
what will happen.

It's me who chooses you
or is it you who chooses me
it seems like a big problem
but there’s no problem at all.
Round and round the big wheel
and the earth isn't empty
everyone has their part
knowing how to live is an art.
Blush as much as you want
run, escape if you can
but
it won't help
but
it won't help.
