1. It seems easy for you today to be done with me, though
I never thought there would come a day when I'd be easy to discard.

2. How you enjoy seeing me humbled, as I deny my dignity
before you and your heart grows cruel while mine grows kind.

3. I hoped for cures but hoping itself betrayed me.
Does my heart not stay true to its passions and yet not betray?

4. My dear, can someone like me hope for intercession with you?
Can I find in your love a helper and friend?

5.
How can I be patient, severed from you, when yearning has worn me down?

6. Your affairs preoccupy me, so I cannot explain.
And these intentions cast arrows between us,

7. While those plains stretch out before us, sad and desolate.
I wish you and I could meet, even if death

8. Were destined to come, and so it would be.
I wish my eyes and your eyes could meet for an instant,

9. So a soul may find peace or eyes be soothed.
If not, then a phantom of you visits me

10. When the night grows dark and longing is stirred.
