I am a lonely body,
A single one,
I am a free man,
I am my burden,
I wish to be free always,
I search for restriction.
A freedom unwanted,
The joy of a single,
The happiness of the married,
All we wish is to be free,
From the liberty of a single.
Be thou patient,
Thy time cometh,
Behold it waits,
Getting ripe in time,
A little patience,
Your crown is waiting.
The joy of the single,
Caught in loneliness,
Seeking for companions,
I am alone in my world.
Here comes the harvest,
Behold it far away,
The great harvest of joy,
When my soul shall be free?
From the burden of a single,
Am waiting for my time.
