Why are they sewing linen clothes for me?
Singing
1. Why do they sew me a linen garment, ; If my name is written as a soldier. ; If they shoot me, it will be good for my wound. ; If I die, they will bury me in it. ; ; 2. I have often said, oh, my God, oh, oh, ; The dawn has broken over my head. ; Now too, such a lover has left me, ; Whom I have never feared while I was alive. ; ; 3. The rod of my fiancé has broken, ; He has left me in the lair of my lover. ; If he has left me, a week, a month, ; I will leave him, a year.
