The Test of Love (I Served There)
Song
I served there, ; I was a servant. ; The great shaman snake crawled into my bosom. ; My heart is oppressed, *) ; The belt of my red blood. ; ; – Take it out, mother, take it out, ; The great shaman snake, ; My heart is oppressed, ; The belt of my red blood. ; ; – I certainly won’t take it, ; Because I’m afraid of it, ; Take it to your father, ; Maybe he’ll take it out. ; ; – Take it out, father, take it out, ; The great shaman snake, ; My heart is oppressed, ; The belt of my red blood. ; ; – I certainly won’t take it, ; Because I’m afraid of it, ; Take it to your aunt, ; Maybe he’ll take it out. ; ; Take it out, aunt, take it out, ; The big Sási snake, ; My heart is oppressed, ; The belt of my red blood. ; ; – I certainly won’t take it, ; Because I’m afraid of it, ; Take it to your brother, ; Maybe he’ll take it. ; ; – Take it out, brother, take it out, ; The big Sási snake, ; My heart is oppressed, ; The belt of my red blood. ; ; – Take it out, my friend, take it out, ; The big Sási snake, ; My heart is oppressed, ; The belt of my red blood. ; ; – Wait, wait, my friend, ; I’ll cut a glove, ; I’ll cut a glove, ; Then I’ll take it out. ; ; *) for lines 3-4 of the melody
