The melody longs for the string (of the lute)
The sun longs for the moon
The night longs for staying up late
But I am unable to long for you. 

There’s love in my heart that broke in pain
And left a scar
My soul, I left you for fate
I cannot tell you more.

What will I benefit from your eyes tearing up and saying you’re regretful?
Don’t call me, I won’t listen; and forget my address
And forget me- If I wanted to return to you, I would have returned a long time ago.

How do you want me to dream with your eyes when you have stolen my dreams?
Let me regret the past, and my years and my days.
And forget me- If I wanted to return to you, I would have returned a long time ago.

The earth longs for rain
The eye longs for sight
The bored one longs for fun
And I am unable to long for you.

Oh how I tired and my heart waited to hear news from you
And today I threw away the pictures
Don’t blame me for telling you

The melody longs for the string (of the lute)
The sun longs for the moon
The night longs for staying up late
But I am unable to long for you.

There’s love in my heart that broke in pain
And left a scar
My soul, I left you for fate
I cannot tell you more.
