1. My aversion is abhorrent, your love obligatory,
My yearning settled, communication absent.

2. In my heart's page your affection I inscribe,
My tears, ink; and beauty, calligrapher.

3. My thoughts peruse the charms unceasingly
To master lessons of beauty diligently.

4. I purify my gaze in your beauty's sky,
For my piercing mind, its star piercing equally.

5. Talk of other than you, hearing it is taboo,
So I'm stripped of all; your beauty's all I accrue.

6. They say "Repent loving whom you came to love!"
I said "I repent all but the willow's dew."

7. Passion's torment is sweet for every lover,
Though to others dire, persistent, and sober.
