Judas' Kiss

Are you going to kiss me
just like what Judas did to Jesus?

Are you selling me
to the man in the big house?

Do you want me to join
the women in the big house
who are not allowed to see the world?

Oh, father, father
please don't give me that judas' kiss
I promise I'll be like a man working in your farm
where the trees are old and dying.

Oh, father, father
please don't give me that judas' kiss
and just let me be free
to marry the one I love.
