1. Do not be deceived by a slender waist so weak,
For death lies in the edge of a sharp sword.

2. And beware the glance of an ailing observer,
Who attacks violently like a ferocious, unruly person.

3. My thirst from the cold lips is so extreme, so who has seen
Thirst from such coldness capped with an icy drink?

4. Who can connect me to one who delays in repaying his debts,
Promising repayment alongside ease, but does not fulfill?

5. On his face is the water of saltiness, confused,
And in his cheek is the rose of life, not yet plucked.

6. So it seems the mark of his excuse on his cheek
Is like ants creeping above a double rose.
