My love is not love, but frenzy, agreed,

My frenzy, let tuy glory be.

 

Sever not your link with me,

If naught else, let enmity be.

 

Why dose my presence embarrass you?

Call me alone, if not in company.

 

Grant, my rival loves you deep,

Nevertheless, I am not your foe.

 

Life, though brief like lightning flash,

Is enough to bleed one,s heart to death.

 

Have I thought of abandoning love?

What, if love an ordeal be?

 

I too will learn humble sumble submission,

Indifference-your nature be.

 

Keep on coaxing your love, Asad,

If not union, let longing be.
