My dear friend
never lose hope

when the Beloved
sends you away.

If you're abandoned
if you're left hopeless

tomorrow for sure
you'll be called again.

If the door is shut
right in your face

keep waiting with patience
don't leave right away.

Seeing your patience
your love will soon summon you with grace

raise you like a champion.

And if all roads
end in dead ends

you'll be shown the secret paths

no one will comprehend.

The beloved I know

will give with no qualms
to the puny ant

the kingdom of Solomon.

My heart has journeyed
many times around the world

but has never found
and will never find

such a beloved again.

Ah I better keep silence

I know this endless love

will surely arrive

for you and you and you.
