1. I bid him farewell, with tears in my eyelids
My sorrow manifest, hastening in grief

2. He thought, when he saw them, that they were
All my limbs with them shedding tears

3. And said: "This was before the day of parting
So what will you do after parting?"

4. I wasted it at the wrong time for tears
I said: "My heart with you I have lost"
