I heard a voice from that bush
I looked around, I approached
It kept on saying "Tra-la, la-la, la-la."
"Chirp, Chirp, Chirp" that melody was beautiful

I looked around, I approached
It kept on saying, "There is trouble in the land ."

They (The singer) wore white robes
They (The singer) also wore red robes
It kept on saying, 'There is trouble in the land .'
