1. How the people neglect my afflictions,
My troubles and misery.

2. They blame me about a friend,
While they know not my malady.

3. Oh how my soul yearns for a companion,
In his absence, I found misery.

4. His distance made me a stranger,
In a land not mine, nor my sky.

5. Sadness has reached its extent in me,
No patience or solace have I.

6. You are my affliction and my malady,
And you know not what my remedy may be.

7. You are the anxiety in my mornings,
You are the anxiety in my evenings.
