译文：
我的歌卸下她的妆饰。她不再以衣饰为傲。妆饰妨碍我们融为一体，它们横亘在你我之间，丁当之声淹没了你的细语。我那诗人的虚荣羞死在你的目光中。诗圣啊，我拜倒在你脚下。就让我的生命简单直率，如一支芦笛，由你吹出音乐。
原文：
My song has put off her adornments. She has no pride of dress and decoration. Ornaments would mar our union; they would come between thee and me; their jingling would drown thy whispers. My poet's vanity dies in shame before thy sight. O master poet, I have sat down at thy feet. Only let me make my life simple and straight, like a flute of reed for thee to fill with music.
译者手记：
不论是面对神，还是面对自我，都要去除不必要的妆饰，才能接近真实，聆听到心中的细语。
