Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony!

Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony! 
I’ve lost my heart! I’ve lost my soul!
You can help me – you are holy.
It should be enough on the whole.

Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony!
I don’t know what I should do now - 
I’d like to live in harmony.
I’ve lost my heart – I don’t know, how.

Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony!
Your face seems to be menacing.
I hope your heart is not stony.
I’ll do what you wish – everything!

Saint Anthony, Saint Anthony! 
I’m at a loss. I should be wiser...
No excuse for the misery!
You won’t help me? Well, you know better...
