1. My heart was granted from its ancestor’s misery
A gazelle, charming with languid eyes bewitching it

2. It hunted down my reason, allured it and aided it
To seize my soul with its mouth and teeth

3. And its eyes did all the actions
To my body so sickness lingered with it

4. So I became exhausted by my condition and means
And the wise I consult were baffled by it

5. The beginning of this love is lasting sorrow
And worries that expel sleep, death its end
