1. O my two companions at the place of farewell
You are brothers in passion and the best of friends

2. Your yearning spirits venture to the distant homeland
For the heart is home to the spirit of man

3. You stayed with me, untethered guests
And endured the pangs of ardent longing

4. I bid you farewell but did not seal it with a kiss
To place upon your feet as you cross the bridge of meaning
