My very first time,
a little blood came from small --
tears in the sheath ring.
Mijn eerste keer kwam	Mein erstes Mal, Blut
er wat bloed uit de scheurtjes --	aus den kleinen Rissen in --
in de schedekrans.	meinem Scheidenkranz.

Sheath ring (or: vagina ring) is a better word than hymen (just as in Sweden the word 'slidkrans' was invented to replace 'mödomshinnan')
