Shortening a ceiling lamp cable. The third strand - assume its earth - has no connection on the bulb holder. What to do with it?

Not sure that's an earth wire. It looks like it's some sort of reinforcement for the main cable.
Earth wires carry current in the event of a fault and must be insulated to account for it.
Is the lamp low voltage?
Can’t say I’ve seen cables like that myself either
