1. O you who suffer from an alien disease
Seeing his body becoming frail

2. I asked the youth about a cure
For one who loves, and that is impossible

3. I have heard those I called but
By your life, to whom I complained, patient

4. If Hippocrates had tasted love one day
He would have lost his way in curing it

5. And how many like me and you are lovesick
Captivated by the glance of a deadly charmer

6. And how many valiant knights extolled
Became captive amidst the fray from a fleeting wink

7. And if love had a remedy
Its cure would be beautiful patience
