1. What is upon that swaying branch
If it leans to unite or turns compassionately

2. With its twig I likened its shape
And the truth is that the people are kind

3. From his rosy cheeks he picks
And from his ruby water he sips

4. Babylon was known for its magic
And magic from my eyelashes I know more

5. With the flutter of compassion and it's a spear
And the glance of an eye and it's keen

6. My blood lengthened and my tears poured
So I tasted what was enough and what sufficed

7. My soul is stamped with love
And the heart from passion is burdened

8. Dignity for love in it
Insulted me who blamed me and was harsh

9. So my tears upon it, O fickle one
Create for it a rhyme like the Scripture

10. With passion my heart returned
Towards you beyond people it turns

11. Love carried me and it carries
The burden of love lightened your waist
