1. Your eyes have darkened my eyes, for they
Have exchanged them for sleepless nights

2. Yearning has been unleashed on tears, so they
Flowed freely when yearning's urge inclined

3. I did not restrain my heart from its plea
And I had been gentle with it indeed

4. So the heart persisted in the sea of love
Riding delusions until it sank

5. O you who mourns a people gone by
The earth has become their grave and coffin

6. Mourn lovers, and lovers alone
Only lovers among us are dead

7. The meadow shone, and I thought it strange
How could I not recognize those paths?

8. They told me she passed by it
I said that's why it shines radiant

9. I smelled the breeze from her direction
So my heart cracked and split into pieces
