When the work day approaches and arrives

Come nag!  Down from the golden mountain top

where traveling the pleasant scented fields

you adventure among lightweight helmets

women and snaklings, ride that yellow sun

as it gentle sways with its brilliant  mane!

Come nag!  Off the dark road leading nowhere

for this is our lodging house to pay up!

Later there will be ravines, later, plains.

Later, too, fragrant meadows and summits:

It’s time to descend and ready yourself,

the heavy halter and saddle are fitting.
