Listen, my love

To this old song, to my heart’s wish
for you,

A steadfast promise

Through all my song’s words.

Remember, beloved,

My hankering for you,

Heaven my witness

To the depth of my yearning.

Whatever bar there be

To our passion,

I shall beat a path there

For us to tread.

Believe that I shall be with you

Though the world hinder.

I care not if you hurt me

So long as your cheer endure.

Anugonsaatongmgasaad

Ngagituuhanako, mabulahanako.

Napakyasangtanankongpaglaum Kay gilaksiningdughansapinanggako.

Mamataynalangako.

O such waste the promises we vowed

That I believed was my good fortune!

All my hopes were dashed
When my beloved broke my heart.

Where I first met you,

There I nurtured Love’s sweetness,

Not knowing how bitter is my fate.

Now that I am left without you,

My only recourse is to die.

If you turn away from me,

What shall this heart do?

My sorrow will know no end,

In grievous sadness this heart
shall weep.

Is there no hope you would return

To my lovelorn care for you?

O how bitter is my destiny

As I weep yearning for you!

How past times have gone to waste,

All things have fallen to the ground

Like wilted leaves.

The wilting leaf, torn from its bough,
Then whirled away by the wind –

Just so a dream vanishing upon waking,

O just so my love now,

All hopeless, so without hope.

O just so my love for you, without fortune,

Alive only as memory, without joy.

How past days have gone to ruin,

Everything has fallen to the ground,

Verily like wilted leaves.

Is to love then a sin?

Is it a sin then to love?

If it were a sin,

O, if it were a sin,

Then have we all sinned!

You may rue it yet

If you go with someone

Who may despise you

Or drive you to tears,

You’ll have yourself only, boy, to blame.

Didn’t you promise

To love me?

Why have you failed?

O, why have you failed?

Is it because to love is to sin?

Adrift is my spirit now,

Lost as in a dream.

I don’t know what apt thing to do,

Whether to cherish you in memory, or resent
Or forget you altogether.

Enfeebled is any power in me,

All feeling is without vigor,

Even my tears have run dry,

My heart languishes, bereaved.

Fallen, crushed, extinguished
all my glory,

Fallen, crushed, extinguished,
since you left me.

Without pity I was betrayed,

Mercilessly I was forsaken.

What festivity there was
Now only reeks of death.

All feeling is dead, drowned
in tears.

For me life is without meaning

Ever since you, my chosen one,     
betrayed me.

Now in silence my heart only
dreams,

Dreaming all will quickly come
to an end.

So all may come to my aid

And you take pity on me.

All the flowers stand witness,

All the birds stand witness,

Under that old towering tree

At last you took pity on me.

Then a darkness descended

From a sky overcast with storm clouds,

And on a sudden you wept,

I cannot tell why, or what mishap,

But our love then you doubted.

Believe me, my chosen one,

When you shall have wearied of living,

There in heaven where you be

Your laughter shall grieve me,

The light of my destiny

Flickering away to death.

Over my grave then forget not

To plant a flower

To remember me by.

Now I bid you farewell,

Farewell to sweet dreams with you.

O would that you feel and heed

My yearning for you

In our separate solitude.

Cherish in your memory our love

That knows not alteration –

My love only for you.
