1. Oh let blame fall from me, I'm not one to rebuke,
Do not take the blame from me down a rugged path.

2. The sleep of my eyes differs from that of my eyes,
Yet in passion they prefer to stay up.

3. What harm in one shunned and keeping apart,
If he'd not been human before the throes of love?

4. I pass by rocks and envy them,
For your heart next to mine resembles a rock.

5. I admit to a sin though it wasn't mine,
If admitting sin leads to forgiveness.

6. I loved those who resembled her in loving,
To the point I came to love the sun and the moon.

7. I've entrusted her no secret except to guard it
With tear and gaze that's how I kept it safe.

8. She dominates my eyes but I forbid her
From staring hard when glance meets glance.

9. When I fear her mysteries might show,
I charge the darkness to conceal and take care.

10. Longing did not keep my heart safe with her,
It toyed with it, betrayed it, how it strayed!
