My Love stood by me at the dawn of day,
And said, 'To grief you make my heart a prey,
What I am casting looks of love at you,
Have you no shame to turn your eyes away?
All my life long I tread love's path of pain,
It peradventure 'union' I may gain
Better to catch one moment's glimpse of Thee
Than earthly beauties' love through lite retain.

Happy is the man who knows the true from the false, and refuses to accept less.

How a pleasant word of an old lover that said
When there is lovem there is no comfort.

I was trapped in love
And this trap is enough for me.

Heart is not free from love pain
Painless body is only soil and water
Everybody vecomes lover
O, there is no leveless heart in the worls.

The pain night will be ended
And separation pain will be remedied
Unaware of this fact that this night is so long
And from that night to morning there are hundred years.
