1. The tears I shed, I sent as a reminder
That he may remember me if he cares

2. Yet he turned away and fled like a fugitive
Saying ask me not, for this is with me

3. I but seek an excuse to turn away
That has hidden from me in seclusion

4. We called them in hopes they would return
But the disappointed deprived heard not

5. Though the judge was not adverse to them
He was too shy and did not return

6. I reminded him of my bounty on him
And stayed not today from my place

7. He said to me, you mock me my lord
When you know that I am a pretender

8. In my state, not my words, is my love for you
For I fear if I pretend

9. He will say, show me proof
Of the truth of your claim

10. Seek not proof from a speaker
Unless you hear him pretend

11. He who he is, and you are the one
Who understands my words, so do not worry
