1. The day has been long, where is the night and wakefulness
I await the moon of the night like the full moon

2. Oh how long I yearn for the sleep of the wakeful one, while
My beloved was away from me until dawn broke

3. Oh heart, be patient for the day we depart, for he who
I was truly awaiting has the right

4. Oh longing, take from my life and leave me a time
Without separation, for in my life it wearies me
