1. Live in peace as long as you haven't sighed for the passing of youth,
And as long as lightning tongues haven't glorified the clouds,

2. Envying the ages of time, drawing out happiness and glory,
Repeating the good you initiate, though many a generous man doesn't repeat or initiate,

3. Drinking it red as a rose, coffee
Whose aroma hints of rosy ambergris,

4. It has loves like necklaces around her moods,
A brunette circles them, smiling at the necklace,

5. The empty-headed blames me for her,
But his heart isn't my heart, nor his passion my passion.
