When you are in pain I’ll shed some tears
Do not hide your
sufferings my love
You’ll feel unburdened
As if you pen down a
few words in your letter
There your heart is
pierced in thorns
And here I lie in the
bed of roses
May it never happen,
even if by mistake
There your eyes are
flooded by tears
And here I enjoy a
hearty laugh
May it never happen,
even if by mistake
You will be freed from
your sorrows
Share with me
Don’t hide your sorrows.
There at your end chulha has no fire
And here I am cooking
fine food
May it never happen,
even if by mistake
Your throat may be dry
with thirst there
And here I have drinks
in both hands
May it never happen,
even if by mistake
You will be freed from
your sorrows
Share with me
Don’t hide your sorrows.
At your end you are
searching for me
And here I have lost
hopes even of survival
May it never happen,
even if by mistake
At your end you leave
the letter unfinished
And I here wait for
your letters
May it never happen,
even if by mistake
You will be freed from
your sorrows
Share with me
Don’t hide your sorrows
