1. Don't make anyone who you love
And are infatuated with a lord over you

2. Visit a dear friend when you are enthralled by him
And make the visit to him from afar without him

3. For that is better than constant companionship
That does not increase your closeness to him at all

4. But he grows bored, then you call out his name
And he says "Here I am," though he's long ignored you
