1. He gifted me separation
And so destroyed my heart completely

2. My beloved's beauty intoxicated me
And tore my heart apart in passion

3. Nothing of me remained but tears
That flowed in torrents of grief

4. And in loving him I attained
Only sorrow and regret

5. Yet he broke his promise of love
Repeatedly, he did not fulfill it

6. He hardened his heart and grew cold
While my body weakened and wasted

7. In his glances I discerned
When I peered beyond the disdain

8. I read in his cheeks
A conscience pure and serene

9. I would sacrifice myself for one
Who passes me by angrily, turned away

10. Casting looks that pierce my soul
With a determination most resolute

11. I would ransom him whenever
I live on though ruined and wrecked
