To you I complain of eyes to which you said,
To you I complain of eyes that you told
"Overflow!" For they have exposed me among my companions.
To overflow, so they exposed me to my companions,

You have left no enemy of mine you knew
And you left no enemy of mine unknown to them!
Who has not felt pity for me because of your cruel heart.
Except that you have softened to me from your harsh heart,

So if you are pleased that I should meet death, then oh,
So if you are pleased that I meet destruction,
Welcome to it—upon my eyes and my head!
Greetings to that, to the eyes and the head!
