1. They said the loved ones neither turned away nor joined
Then tell me if they ever lived or were they killed

2. And death for me would be rest but they
Would never allow anything in which I have hope

3. Like the indifferent when their quest went astray
They spared me not their indifference nor felt indifference

4. What have I to do with them or with the beloved's estrangement and the watchman's
Surveillance and the enemy's accusation. I cannot bear

5. Nor does it cross my mind or stay in my memory
Or anything like what I have endured

6. If my resolve falters it's the sea shuddering
And the mountain may quake when made to quiver

7. You've cast me out of life and my soul never left
And left it one with no hope

8. So the soul from its worries remains imprisoned in its body
Nay, the soul's companion remains imprisoned under worries

9. The sin is for beauty not for love if they judge fairly
But they never judge fairly

10. Who of the two failed the other
Or was there no respite between their two passions

11. I have no way to life now how can I live it
Oh would that I were like one whose paths are blocked
