What did you do with me?
You banished me into a world of sorrow!
Why did you hurt my heart?
What do you want from me?
You went away and I am staying here alone.
In who's arms is your place of refuge now?
 
The whole night long until the first light of day
my eyes were turned towards the door.
I sacrificed my life for you.
What a shame! You were faithlessly!
Now I spend the nights without you.
Where are you in those dark nights?
 
You won my heart and after this you went away.
You may go! Some other one will response my love.
You are like the light of a candle,
for which the loving moth yearns.
My heart dies in loneliness.
