I saw my Beloved's flower garden 

In my vertigo, in my dizziness, in my drunken haze

Whirling and dancing like a spinning wheel

I saw myself as the source of existence

I was there in the beginning

And I was the spirit of love

Now I am sober, there is only the hangover

And the memory of love, and only the sorrow

I yearn for happiness, I ask for help

I want mercy, and my Love says

Look at me and hear me

Because I am here, just for that

I am your moon and your moonlight too

I am your flower garden and your water too

I have come all this way,

eager for you without shoes or shawl

I want you to laugh to kill all your worries

To Love you to nourish you

Oh sweet bitterness

I will soothe you and heal you

I will bring you roses

I, too, have been covered with thorns.
