1. If only those you love would love you,
Your worldly life would be filled with bliss.

2. Alas, this is just wishful thinking -
A fantasy your heart conjures up.

3. What do you expect when passion persists
And keeps striking sparks in your soul?

4. You planted a seedling of love until
When it bore fruit, separation was your harvest.

5. I wonder what you did with love,
And what that was all about!

6. Did you do anything but live passionately,
Until love destroyed and deluded you?

7. It called you, and you answered eagerly,
Only to end up disappointed and dejected.

8. You complain but find no sympathizer,
No one to listen to your lamentations.

9. It seems the one you complain to about passion
Is deaf, unable to hear your whispers.
