O earth, how hard you heart.

I speak because I love you.

Don't longer choose hell's part.

Wake up, please hear now, do!

O fellows, quit your role.

I cry for ways to reach you.

Don't stage away your soul.

Now sober up, be through.

O blood of mine, wrong game!

I offer you the best play.

Don't worsen more your shame.

But take life's only way.

Oh dear, yes, dear you are.

I try to stop your mad pace.

Don't laugh these words, nor mar.

Now start and run my race.

O earth, there is a hell.

I take you up from way down.

Don't will your soul then sell.

Now choose th'eternal crown.
