The song begins with the swordsman, dressed in black, drowning and screaming in a moonlit rendezvous with the songstress, who is singing a lullaby for him. The swordsman asks the songstress to take off her clothes and kiss him, but the songstress refuses to do so, saying that she would rather do it naked. The two begin to dance, and when the song is over, the swordman realizes that he has been alone for the first time in his life.
