TRAVAILS OF A MAN WHEN HIS BELOVED IS ABSENT
Same gray sky
For centuries stares
What an evening for a heart
That is without the one it loves!
Fie on you O ye men and women
Who waste money at gambling dens
And your chastity in the beds of strangers!
I miss my friends
They are all scattered worldwide
O God! Tell me please
In whom I must confide?
My lovely lady is not beside me...
Can't You see?
How to reach the tavern's doors
When my footsteps do not support me?
O God of mine do help me out
And take me to the wine-haven
Where my beloved lady with her beautiful gaze
And most assuring poised ways
Make night enter day in no time
And make me lose myself in wine...
