A rabbit hops gently; a pheasant is caught in a snare.
When I was born, all was quiet.
When I grew up, the world was in chaos.
Sleep! No need to talk any more.

A rabbit hops gently; a pheasant is caught in a snare.
When I was born, all was peaceful.
When I grew up, disasters prevailed.
Sleep! No need to see any more.

A rabbit hops gently; a pheasant is caught in a snare.
When I was born, things were harmonious.
Since I've been grown, we've known only war.
Sleep! No need to hear any more.
