1. In your hands lie the life of my soul and body
And in your consent is the scope of secrets and public knowledge

2. And in my conscience is a hidden secret of love for you
If my mind sought to reveal it, it would not become apparent

3. A love that wavered in the air with discontent
I've kept it safeguarded so it guards me

4. I've hidden from everything except your love
From the illness, and if not for my nature, it would not show

5. Between me and love is the strongest affinity
So it knows me truly and I know it

6. O keeper, set boundaries between my heart and sorrow
And nullify the pact between the eye and the eyelid

7. Torment my soul with your absence, so my craze intensifies
And nurture my heart with your estrangement, so my passion connects

8. For my wishes are only that you alarm me
And my bliss is only that you torture me

9. I'm amazed, O people, how love has become
For the soul, magnetism of pleasures and tribulations
