1. She remained awake throughout the long night, sleepless,
Her yellow complexion faded, drained by tears and insomnia,

2. Her soul, ablaze over her temples,
Creeps through her body leaving her no vigor,

3. She bears the night, destroying it, though it devours her,
The night laughs as she weeps and burns,

4. So I said, you're not like me, you live in comfort
At peace all day while my days are filled with worry
