The horizon is empty until far away
now I shall search it for you, where is it?
Where are you, (that) you don't come in sight?
Come, listen to this supplication:

Don’t go, please don’t go
Wherever you are absent, my breaths have stopped
My heart is lonely …

What sort of relationship is this?
it is trickling from my eyes!
[both lines x2]
In between the millstones of two hearts,
it is being divided and ground
[both lines x2]
Just out of stubbornness
do not belie your own heart

The heart is pierced/bound with love,
it is like a stubborn bird
[both lines x2]
It is wounded by hope
but alive based on love

My plea is full of aspiration,
don't reject it like this
