1. Should I confess my love or keep it hidden?
Your eyes know what mine are saying.

2. My shyness stops me from revealing my passion,
Yet your understanding spares me from confessing.

3. You've been gentle about my situation. If you're
Seeking the goal, gentleness meets gentleness.

4. You greeted me with smiles as if to say:
"Don't worry, you're in good hands with me."

5. And when awe of you made me shy,
You put me at ease with kindness and tact.

6. You've perfected kindness, beauty and wisdom,
And added perfection with pretense and grace.

7. So loving you brings salvation yet temptation -
It heals what hurts me and hurts what heals me.

8. Loving you, one finds in love his end.
Strange that death should come from life!

9. Good sir, you've given me the prime of love.
One like you doesn't trouble what is clear.

10. Please promise me - your word will revive my soul.
Please, with your promise, assure me of your faith.
