1. A lost hope and a wandering heart
Between overwhelming love and rebelling wound

2. And a misguidance approached by the nights
Taking off its mask and undressing

3. And it appeared pale like the day of a killed one
That barely kissed the embroidered morning

4. May God forgive her nights
That pictured to me barren spring and meadow

5. The blond one shared me the sorrows of my heart
And its passion, chirping when it chirped

6. Then it turned away while my heart is like a slackened chord
An orphan of tears and singular melody

7. My staying, I see the continuity of my vanishing
And my ending in a picture that renews

8. And my elegy, and what benefits my elegy
For a miserable safety that scatters

9. In vain, I gather what is lost from her
While death awaits me and her in ambush

10. And my staying, I cry over a vain hope
And I pity a bandaged wound

11. And my deception of destinies, while my eyelids
Are a bed and thorns are my mattress

12. And my complaints to the darkness, and it is like me
Lost, its morning misguided and smoothed

13. And my looking up to the sky with my eyes
And my calling unto it every slumberer

14. It made me despair in it, so nothing remained
On earth that pleases and is praised

15. It took the beautiful and the exquisite perfection
And made every sanctified structure collapse

16. A pillar of the sky tilted and every erected palace became ruined
My Lord, pardon my confusion and skepticism

17. And a question fluttering in my wings
It is the whisper of misery, not a form

18. Nor a rebellion, for your justice is eternal
Where, O Lord, where before my time

19. Do I once meet my only company?
A friend not deterred by the cunning of slanderers

20. And not discouraged by envy and grudging
And a beloved whose tenderness, when it flows

21. Rewards me with endless plenty
And an embrace I feel in my ribs

22. Flowing in the blood like abundant foam
