Listening to a cry of bombs,
Listening to the scream of a distant field
Listening this is what the fawn thought, standing by a stream

What madness, what madness of men, to diminish the earth?
To blast all that is lively, lively proud and gentle
What can be the reason?
What can be the reason?
What? Can be? The reason? The reason?"

The fawn thought,
listening to a cry of bombs, standing by a stream:
What can be the reason?
