1. The sorrowful, downcast lover weeps loudly,
Not knowing when you turned away how it would be.

2. He concealed his passion and suppressed his intense yearning,
Yet both were evident, though he kept them hidden.

3. Do not fail his eyes, O tears of his!
To the refuge of her he loves turn your gaze!

4. Why do there not churn in his heart
The stirrings of passion that know no repose?
