On his deathbed poor Lubin lies,
On his deathbed poor Lubin lies,
His spouse is in despair;
His spouse is in despair;

Poor Lubin fears that he shall die,
Poor Lubin fears that he shall die,
His wife that he may live.
His wife that he may live.

On his deathbed poor Lubin lies,
His spouse is in despair;
With frequent sobs and mutual cries,
They both express their care.

A diff'rent cause, says Parson Sly,
The same effect may give;
Poor Lubin fears that he shall die,
His wife that he may live.
