First lines
Leave me, my blamer, For the sake of the love which unites your soul with that of your beloved one; For the sake of that which joins spirit with mothers affection, And ties your heart with filial love. Go, and leave me to my own weeping heart.
Let me sail in the ocean of my dreams; Wait until Tomorrow comes, For tomorrow is free to do with me as he wishes. Your laying is naught but shadow That walks with the spirit to the tomb of abashment, And shows heard the cold, solid earth.
