1. The youth wept after the commotion, his heart nearly burst
Tears flowed like rivers, his lovesick heart they will surely fell

2. Long has he cried, if only that could help
For the love of she who pleases him and he pleases her

3. God has made them crave each other, and made them crave
He will not abandon her, nor will she abandon him

4. She is not like those who would deceive and be deceived
With empty promises that lead nowhere

5. But she has his companionship completely
So they share a bed and share their rest

6. Lifting her up and she lifting him
God will gather them together again when they have passed
