| With a knife I slowly carved An ivory harp. Strings made of gold I placed on it. Fingers to it I sent And I played a song. And the echo from the horizon's edge replays my song. With a knife I slowly carved A flute from reeds. Eight holes I punctured And it is all wrapped up. I placed it on my lips And I played a song. And the echo from the horizon's edge replays my song. From cast copper I built a bell. Clappers I attached to it, As pomegranate flowers. My hand on it I placed And I played a song. And the echo from the horizon's edge replays my song. Forest horn I built made of seashell. I covered it with gypsum stone and gold decorations. I brought the horn to my lips, And I played a song. And the echo from the horizon's edge replays my song.
