Echo of Heart

Posted on at


Watch,whence it rises,from the heart or the soul,

Whence doth it spring, this streak of smoke?

What smouldering heart lies buried under the sky?

Every morn a flame from here seems to rise.

Never should you quit the chamber of my heart.

Whoever abandoned such a secure resort?

Wherever she casts her coquettish glance.

A tumult,a storm begins to blow.

Who will let him sit beside,

He who is banished from your door?

As I left that lane, I felt,

As if I am quitting the world.

Love, O mir, is a heavy rock,

Beyond your meagre strength to lift.
