1. If he is not a slanderer as they claimed,
Why did my eyelids shed tears of blood for him?

2. I call upon longing and tears to witness
The sorrow, grief, and illness he left me.

3. In what does he see wrong with my body,
When I have become, because of him, a sign?

4. By love I swear, if oaths Love will allow,
I never asked of his love a binding vow.
