He who knows no wound, how can he see the face?
The heart's ache, o friends, only a heart can embrace.
One pain visits all, one malady we share,
Weep not, O heart, weep not, the heavens weep there.
One pain visits all, O heart, weep not, do not despair.
Who says that no one knows sorrow's sting?
Say rather, whose eyes do not tears bring?
In the crowd, the heart laughs, in solitude, it weeps,
To remember another, a hardship it keeps.
Who says that no one knows sorrow's sting?
Say rather, whose eyes do not tears bring?
In solitude, we weep in secret's keep,
Drinking the poison of grief, we learn to sleep.
Weep not, O heart, weep not, such is the fate of all,
One pain visits all, O heart, heed sorrow's call.
Hardships they visit all in life's domain,
In times of trouble, who offers solace, who shares the pain?
Even shadows part in the darkness' reign.
Hardships they visit all in life's domain,
Compulsions they visit all in life's chain.
A torment that lingers, throughout our days,
A single event, in every life's maze.
Weep not, O heart, weep not, such is the fate for all the days,
One pain visits all, weep not, O heart, weep not always.
