1. O poem of my life that you write me
Each day a letter from the melody of your love

2. Have mercy on me, O passion, or else slaughter me
Do not leave me hanging in your sky

3. Every time you took a life from me, give me
A moment from an hour inside your enclosure

4. I see life and death is in me
And the torments of those who wanted you but did not find you

5. I stay up all night and the moon of your ghost is in my eyes
And the morning rays wake me up with hope for you

6. If someone guides me, my yearning turns me
And if your ghost appears before my eyes, I cry for you

7. How is this from the love of my heart that comes to me
O most restless of people, tell me what is your concern

8. If I persist in blaming you, forgive me
You have persisted in slaughtering me from your tyranny
