1. One day a fleeting passerby asked me
About my love and my enchanting beloved

2. She didn't know that I was a poet
An inspired one who loves the chaste

3. And a lover who does not complain reproachfully
Rather I love captivating eyes

4. And a slender, bending figure that followed
My soul unswervingly

5. And loyalty that I never denied
Does a bird's branch deny the bird?

6. She asked me while the young woman was adorned
In the rise of hopes and wishes in bloom

7. I wish she knew that I'm still here
A poet who definitely needs a poetess

8. I said, oh sister, no, don't ask
I'm that young man who loves the rare
