1. Do I seem relaxed, though I cannot endure?
Where is my patience, how can the sturdy bend?

2. Whose memory still weighs on heart and mind -
A guardian whose absence the ribs resent.

3. Can I find solace when tears fill my eyes?
Long has his pillow been drenched by my sorrows.

4. That paragon of beauty in life's spring -
His love remains in my heart, forever alive.
