Because so quickly flew, the sight

I couldn’t follow him on his flight.

He fell to the ground, he did not know where;

Because who has eyesight so sharp and strong

What can follow the flight of song?

A long, long time later, in an oak tree

I found the arrow, still intact;

And the song, from beginning to end,

I found myself again in the heart of a friend.”
