1. My hopes embodied him, so he remained my boon companion.
I reveled, conquering delight.

2. Then I confided in him until I conversed
With him about my secret and his hidden mystery.

3. I went on watering him, then drank from his
Sealed and stamped wineskin.

4. And a song, then I heard from him
A boon companion I ransomed with a boon companion.
