1. Our time that you don't know is a time of hardship
How many I see drowning in its seas

2. You don't see how time has made us
A company of lovers with the beloved

3. It is two halves, right and left
Like the split tail of a robe

4. This one equals it with the Pleiades, and that one
Considers it the brother of Aldebaran

5. Both astonished at the heat of love
Seeing its eggs like the eggs of the ostrich

6. They think dividing union with separation is fair
And approve of taking rights

7. They don't get enough of comparing sorrows
And never tire of measuring tears

8. This one has never opposed that one except
Their swords met on the road

9. My eyes have never seen the like of this before
Or two archers inside a single bow

10. They are from passionate love between a near one
And a far one in the melodies of passion

11. This one like a measurer of waves when love was remembered
And that one like a blower into a bugle
