1. Would that my heart had never loved, nor become love-struck!

    Nay, would that I had never had loved ones.

  2. I have seen the thrall of passion as though

    all afflictions had been poured upon him alone.

  3. Yet a person’s eye is the key to desire;

    when he gazes, the doors are opened to him.

  4. And when God wills something for a man,

    the very means close off his path.

Sol 5.6
