1. O you who left, was there not
A pact between us that stood?

2. Your betrayal became clear,
So what is this denial?

3. You swore you were never disloyal,
Yet your treachery has witnesses.

4. O you whose love has changed,
May your new companion bless you.

5. If you were pleased with turning away,
Likewise, I was pleased with the estrangement.

6. Know that I do not want
To see you if you do not want to see me.

7. I was close, so if you change
My companion, then I will be far.

8. A day will come when
I free my heart of you - that day is a celebration.

9. And perhaps you will want me to return
To loving you, but I will not return.

10. You knew well that my character
In love is firm.
