One made a strong iron claw,

With it, he sought to challenge the lion’s might.

When the lion pulled itself into the claw,

The strength within the claw was no longer seen.

Someone said, 'Why do you rest like a woman?'

Strike with the iron claw, don't rest.

I heard the poor man speak beneath,

‘One cannot challenge the lion with such a claw.'

When love conquers the wise mind,

It is like the iron claw against the lion’s might.

In the lion’s claw, the hero of Eugenius,

What use is the iron claw to you?

When love arises, no longer speak of reason,

For the ball is captive in the hand of the club.
