I fear that I will always be a lonely number like root three

   Why must my three keep out of sight beneath a vicious aquare-root sign?

   I wish instead I were a nine

   When ,hark,just what is this I see?

   Another square root of a three

   Has quietly come waltzing by

   Together now we multiply

   To form a number we prefer

   Rejoicing as an integer

   And with a wave of magic wands  

   随着魔杖的挥舞  

   Our square-root signs become unglued  

   我们的根号被掀开  

   And love for me has been renewed  

   而我的爱也焕然一新
