1. Faithfulness to the covenant is a trait of the generous
And covenant-breaking is a trait of the vile

2. In my eyes, nothing counts as good manners
Except keeping affection and responsibility

3. Beauty at the start is no condition for love
Rather, its condition is a beautiful ending

4. A covenant is not what you kept one day
But what you kept always

5. You noble souls broke a covenant
We thought would last a thousand years

6. Yesterday we hoped for closeness
Today we make do with peace

7. The covenant of the trustworthy was fulfilled
While the covenant of traitors was just words

8. He who does not seek excuse for sin
Finds it easy to refute blame

9. He who does not consider your love when he leaves
Will not consider your love if he stays

10. He who makes good and bad equal
Is ignorant of dawn from darkness

11. I am the ever-loyal friend, and my soul
Fulfills a friend's due perfectly

12. I uphold his rights as long as he lives
And after death, the rights of his bones
