Put on the mask, put on the mask
Throw away your name
When the moon rises the market fires go out
One drum, two drums wake the ground
Nobleman and servant both cover their faces
Tonight it is all the same dance
Eolssu — eolssu —
Stamp your foot and the earth answers
Eolssu — eolssu —
Breathe and the sky turns
Put on the mask, put on the mask
Throw away your name
Until the sun comes up, until the sun comes up
Turn, turn
Silk robes and straw sandals, on the dirt
the same dust, the same beat
One turn round and even the king laughs
Two turns round and the whole world dances
Who is behind the mask
Let nobody ask
Who is behind the mask
Tonight, only the wind
Put on the mask, put on the mask
Throw away your name
Until the sun comes up, until the sun comes up
Turn, turn
Eolssu… jihwaja…
Don't take off the mask
not before the sun is up
