They buzz about , the blue flies ,
Lighting on the fences .
O happy and courteous sovereign ,
Do not believe slanderous speeches .

They buzz about , the blue flies ,
Lighting on the jujube trees .
The slanderous observe no limits ,
And throw the whole kingdom into confusion .

They buzz about , the blue flies ,
Lighting on the hazel trees .
The slanderous observe no limits ,
And set us two at variance .
