1. They blame me for a crime I did not commit,
While others are blamed for all their misdeeds.

2. I trusted people you yourself trust,
Yet they spoke ill of us and fabricated tales.

3. They attributed to us words we never said,
Then exaggerated about us and divulged what I kept secret.

4. Since we parted, my eyes have been sore with grief,
And their wandering has returned, so they shed tears.

5. So do not rebuke me if you see me still love you -
I confess my sin, for I have done wrong.

6. A blessing - if an ant crept on her body,
The ant's creeping on her body would seem to speak.

7. Is it not enough that we are both in one town,
Yet stay apart and do not talk?
