We Rejoiced in Love
Whenever falls darkness my worries increase,
While those without worries are happy.
We rejoiced in love united,
And hearts, without appointments, met.
Took me, yearning, due to distance,
My heart and mind after my feelings eloped.
With love for who put fire in my soul,
Of my conscience and my pains they are unaware.
To conquer patience my heart failed,
The way my beloved to stay far from me was able.
The wounds of enduring solitude have no balm,
Dark, the atmosphere of loneliness, without clarity.
Through intimacy, the tyrant increased her tyranny,
And if I take one step, she steps with me.
Free, he whose heart from love is free,
Not between worry and moments of drifting.
Oh supreme, such is love,
Before us, many in its ocean vanished.
I rejoiced in poetry blossoming,
From the abundance of thought, its lines are pure.
They escaped to me like flowers gathered,
Precious, they inspired me to compose.
No, yes, unseen the meaning obscured,
Wishes! In 'if only', what have they found?
While those without worries are happy.
