Have you fallen in love or been stricken with arrows?
Regardless, this is the true nature of a lover.
Let us drink and you sing for me
Mention her name while you play the violin
You, who is mentioning her praises
I get jealous when you mention her name
I get jealous of her clothes
When they touch her softened body
I feel jealous from her father and mother
If they whispered in her ears
I envy the glasses that kiss her mouth
When she drinks away
There is a girl within my soul
That beautified herself with chastity
There are freckles on her cheeks
That grew from musk
I lost my mind and sanity when I saw her
When I tried to approach her, she refused and walked away
If you see her, please tell her I am so deeply in love with her
Mention my name with good things
Hoping that one day, she will give me a chance
If you see her, please tell her I am so deeply in love with her
And bring her to my grave when I am gone
My bones will crave to be stepped on by her feet
My soul is calling her and my eyes follow her
That only thing that cures me time and time again
Is my hope of seeing her again, one day
