1rst hemistich: Triste va el rey David,

1rst hemistich: Metió la mano en so pecho,
2nd hemistich: y pelo sano no se deshó,
1rst hemistich: yorando y endichando
2nd hemistich: por so hizho Abshalóm.
1rst hemistich: Echó los ozhos en frente
2nd hemistich: d' ande despunta el sol,
1rst hemistich: vido venir una muchacha,
2nd hemistich: vestida más que el carbón.
1rst hemistich: Demandando y preguntando
2nd hemistich: ónde es Abdashalóm.
1rst hemistich: El so padre que la vido
2nd hemistich: y el velo no se deshó.
