1. My Master, by the kindness you have given me
If I break my vow, what will my punishment be?

2. Is there no remedy for this rejection from you
That would root out joy with sadness?

3. You believed me when you saw my patience
Against the words of slanderers and fools

4. And you abandoned me, turning away your eyes
Attributing frivolity to me, my Master

5. If my patience in loving you is a crime
And you hide the faults of my eyes in jest

6. Let me openly profess my love, excuse me
And pluck the fruit of acceptance with restless fingers

7. I used to think you were lofty in loyalty
And say you are most forgiving

8. And I thought on the day you rejected me
That you would save me from my enemies

9. Rise, erase what lies between us with a touch
For rejection from the likes of you cannot be washed away

10. And listen, the sin of patience is but one sin
For I have forgiven much more than this
