Dark clouds cover my sky,
As if my heart has shattered into pieces.
It waited for you, hoping you would return,
But you will not come back.
Proud, graceful gazelle,
Those gazelle-like eyes once enchanted me.
Tell me now, what should I call you?
A cruel, unfaithful, heartless one?
Your lashes like sharp spears,
Your brows dark as the night,
Those cherry-like eyes of yours—
Thoughts of you
Never leave my mind.
I love you,
Yet it means nothing now.
You are you, and I am me,
Our paths have long been separated.
The pain of separation never fades,
The fiery flame of love burns my heart.
A trembling has covered my whole being;
My heart has stopped—
It no longer beats.
In my veins, it feels as though
Not blood but emptiness flows.
This world has become too narrow for my eyes.
The sky belongs to the stars,
The tree to its roots—
But for me…
Nothing truly matters.
No, it does matter.
My heart longs for a cure.
Otherwise, what use are
All these riches and possessions,
All desires and ambitions?
I only wish to be loved.
Yet you left me.
Still, despite everything,
I will wait for you.
Even if you are not mine,
Just be happy.
You have forgotten me—
My gazelle-eyed one, my sweet-spoken one.
Until my very last breath,
I will love you.
And for your happiness,
I will keep living and fighting.
