1. After you had been a crown upon my head,

    I now see you as one of the most contemptible of people.

  2. For so long, like a madman, you followed me,

    until you took possession of my heart and feelings.

  3. Then you began asking how I fared merely out of courtesy,

    yet you share neither my sorrow nor my solace.

  4. The fire of longing burns me all night long,

    while you are heedless, unaware of what I feel.

  5. O cold-hearted one, say something to reassure me;

    do not leave me drowning in a sea of anxious thoughts.

  6. How long will I conceal my pain, broken-hearted,

    while your cruel heart will not soften at my plight?

  7. You are the one who killed love long ago;

    so do not blame me if I snuff out my breath.

  8. Playing innocent will not absolve you of my pain,

    nor will your tenderness heal me of my anguish.

  9. Your entreaties still linger in my memory,

    and your tears are etched into my notebook.

  10. Do not forget your past—the days bear witness;

    and if you forget, I am not one who forgets.
