1. You severed the ties of my love and betrayed my trust
And reproached me yet did not accept reproach

2. Oh Lord of a night with no hoped-for dawn
In it I endured what I disliked as you wished

3. Oh what a regret if a preventer holds back my palms
And restricts them from what I love in this life

4. My ambition was not for a favor I could obtain
And attain, but only that I might look upon another
