1. I roamed love's meadow, gleefully let loose,
My secret's spread, tears streaming from my eyes.

2. Oh you who look at me, don't blame, can't you see
That to please one's beloved is mere delight?

3. While for the lover no joy or bliss remains
My heart's asleep, hoping my love will come,

4. Whose dear image fills my soul's inner room.
All night my eyes stayed open just to see him,

5. So ask them both what meaning can be gleaned,
For eyes will hint at what is meant, what's keen.
