The dolichos grows, covering the thorn trees; |
|
The convolvulus spreads all over the waste. |
|
The man of my admiration is no more here; |
|
With whom can I dwell? -- I abide alone. |
|
The dolichos grows, covering the jujube trees; |
|
The convolvulus spreads all over the tombs. |
|
The man of my admiration is no more here; |
|
With whom can I dwell? -- I rest alone. |
|
How beautiful was the pillow of horn! |
|
How splendid was the embroidered coverlet! |
|
The man of my admiration is no more here; -- |
|
With whom can I dwell? -- Alone [I wait for] the morning. |
|
Through the [long] days of summer, |
|
Through the [long] nights of winter [shall I be alone], |
|
Till the lapse of a hundred years, |
|
When I shall go home to his abode. |
