1. A woman's words as she gazed with tear-filled eyes,
Streams descending upon her cheeks.

2. Do you lie in weeping while you are free
Of sins long past you never dared.

3. Your shirt and tears wander about in it
While your heart feels no grief.

4. Like Joseph's shirt when they came
With false blood upon its hems.

5. So I said, may my father and mother be your ransom,
You have stoned with your ill assumption of the hidden.

6. By God, if you probed my heart
With your secret in wailing and lament.

7. The tears of lovers when they come together
Are the tongues of hearts in privacy.
