1. When you reminded me of my mistreatment
And opposed me when you agreed upon my abandonment

2. I forgot you in the morning, with neither boredom nor care
And you forgot me in equal measure

3. I once passed time singing your praises
And describing you in verse till poetry of you was widespread

4. And if I spoke harshly to you once
For something that saddened my heart to bear

5. I trusted in my faithful service to you
And the prime years of my life spent in diligence
