Thou, for whose love I've sacrifice existence,
Art, yet art not, the sum of earth's existence,
Earth lacks true Being, yet depends thereon—
Thou art true Being, Thou art pure existence
The Loved One is quite colourless, O heart,
Be not engrossed with colours, then, O heart
All colours come from what is colourless,
And 'who can dye so well as God,' O heart?

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.
