1. He denied me with little, though I'm awake
And gave me a little in my dream

2. An urgent fantasy, yet it was nothing but an illusion
An illness swiftly cured of all sickness

3. And we met as we wished, with no fault
Except that it was in dreams

4. And if the meeting was at night
Then nights are better than days

5. I attained my hopes, though I had
Despaired of attaining my hopes from afar
