Oh, may God cherish those days by the shores,
O shepherd of the plains long ago
When the lover's life was fresh and pleasant,
Where a lover's life was soft and blissful

When the eye beheld a full moon of beauty,
The eye sees in it a full moon of beauty
And the lovesick lover enjoyed good fortune in his love.
The dawn rises in its love happy
