1. Live righteously, for my body is frail
And my torment is long for what I endure

2. My passion has lasted so long that I lost my heart
It faded when the sickness approached it

3. And my eyes began shedding tears over it
In grief when there was no way to get to it

4. O my tears do not embarrass me, for I have not
Found little passion for the beloved from the ache

5. Conceal and make my heart overflowing
For it is a good channel for the tears
