1. That day I will never forget as long as I live
When you came to bid farewell while I kept crying

2. The best of the youth of the age in nobility and aspiration
You rose to the highest and attained the loftiest goals

3. By my soul your face shone like the full moon
And your slender figure towered like a lofty spear

4. Four years have passed with no smiles on their mornings
And the days were but dark nights

5. My eyes saw none of the joys of our companionship
I will cry and weep for you in verse after verse
