My heart cries for you,

Day and night it chatters untiring.Is there any way to silence it? ‘I said, ‘Why, keep a pebble into your mouth! ‘After few days, my Being said to me,‘The tongue has been silent.Now is there any wayTo silence the heart? ‘I said, ‘Alas!Nothing but death can silence a heart ever.’

I fear to show her that,In case she turns awayHer sweet face in hatred.

If nose beautiful, you are beautiful.If tooth beautiful, you are beautiful.If lips beautiful, you are beautiful.If breasts beautiful, you are beautiful.But if your mind is beautiful, o girl,By God, you are the most beautiful.

Before I saygoodbye,Forgive me then,Children.Forgive, o Sun.Forgive, o Moon.I could not understandI have to go so soon.Goodbye, all men.Goodbye, all birds.Goodbye, children,farmers, shepherds

She looks fine when she gets angry.Sayeed, which way you watch the Moon,she always remains the Moon;the Moon will never look ugly.

‘Because I have to bloom’the bud says.Yet the bud blooms,then begins to die,like dewdrops falling down on tombssays, ‘Goodbye.’
