1. O you who are hastening the boiling of the coffee,
Nothing remains for me after it but the grounds.

2. You used to be a constant visitor in the past,
But now your forgetfulness has distanced you from me.

3. And many times I sipped from your saliva,
And how many hidden tricks you have!

4. And pinches from your hand whenever
I shook your hand brought healing to me.

5. Your love for me is during constant sickness,
But my love for you is during wellness.
