I have no tears to weep
I have no tears to shed
for you, nor patience to find solace.
Nor patience to endure

I am preoccupied with the prolonged cruelty
My misery from yearning for you
you show, and with my longing for you.
And my heart filled with you

My rest would come if my heart
If only my heart could be free
were free of the memory of you.
From thoughts of you

I see no equal to myself in love,
I see no one in love like me
just as you have no equal.
As no one is like you
