1. Whenever your love recedes from my eyelids
Blame rests appeased by my tranquility

2. And behind my chest is a burning pain
Whose measure is the flow of my tears preoccupying me

3. Oh hot tears in their eyelids
That would be called faithful or grieving

4. So if they indicated my passion for you
They have also protected the guarded secret

5. So consider the wonder of a gazing betrayer
Telling about a trusting heart

6. In the path of love, I am slain
Killed between cheeks and eyes

7. I despair that hearts can be ransomed
Taken captive between indifference and captivation

8. And hearts ruled by confusion
Missing the possession of the right hand

9. A neighbor whose religion's slain lives on
And my refuge in the shelter of faith is my faith
