Five Heroes

We take the flock of sheep,
And give you the snow-white rams!
Five armed heroes,
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
We take the goats,
And give you the rams with black markings on their fur!
Five armed heroes,
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
We take the oxen,
And give you the bulls with red markings on their fur!
Five armed heroes,
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
We take the mares,
And give you the strong stallions!
Five armed heroes,
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
We take the camel train,
And give you the male camels!
Five armed heroes,
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
We leave you your father,
And your mother, too.
Five armed heroes
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
We take all the livestock,
And leave you the healthy males!
Five armed heroes,
Five heroes who maraud the rich!
