1. I yearn for you with overflowing tenderness
That heals sorrows and mends cracks

2. And I long for you as flowers long
For drops of dew when spring returns

3. You dawned a day that lit up my gloom
And with your radiance increased the glow

4. And you revived my heart like the greening
That restores plants and brings life to branches

5. Like raindrops you come like the moon
A soothing light that nurtures the ribs

6. I fly to you, willingly and freely
For I cannot choose to sever

7. A beloved you are, like the magic of wishes
Close to me, though I crave return

8. For you I sacrificed sorrows and remnants
For you I sacrificed all my life

9. You are the brisk, verdant spring
And the aromatic, wondrous incense

10. And you are the distant, radiant zenith
Raising longing, remaining lofty

11. And you are the gentle, passionate, delightful
Who fills my breast and is kindly and meek

12. My love and my soul, rest in peace
For none after you rivals the rising
