1. Oh God, the dream died in the bud
It was the dream of the night and the stars

2. The rose's tale to its neighbors
The lover's tale to the lover

3. The breezes recount it in rapture
In the forest to the humming nightingale

4. So laughter dances in a smile
And laughter freezes in a smile

5. And the dream becomes the talk of the meadows
An understanding one tells an inquirer

6. The dawn did not shine upon it
Except slain, with a silent beak

7. Oh my blond dream, oh comfort
That roamed a mute, gloomy heart

8. Oh chuckle in the mind of one who sways
Oh tune in the inspired string

9. Nothing remains of your wedding but visions
Dyed with tears in my eyelids

10. You die in my heart and in my pupils
To a horrifying, painful scream

11. Its past clamors over its bier
Wounded memory, my mouth bloody

12. Oh heart what you desire and expect
From a funeral you walk to a funeral

13. Oh hungry one I fed with my suffering
Oh thirsty one I quenched with my blood

14. Oh fool who walks to his grave
You shattered my ribs and did not pity

15. Be quiet, I feel death in my bed
And in the corners of the dark room

16. I feel in my chest the creeping of ruin
Crawling in my side like a snake

17. If only you did not flutter on my arm
If only you did not lie on my wrist

18. Oh infidel who lost his dreams
If only you did not love or dream

19. Oh heart, the dream died in season
So seize it, my heart, in season
