Why did I meet his gaze, a stranger's eyes?
Why did I meet his gaze?
He, the cruel one, left me pain.
Why did I meet his gaze?
Wounded, wounded, I cry out,
But no one wounded answers mine.
Wounded, wounded, I cry out,
No one understands my pain.
He does not know, does not feel,
The ache, the hurt, the sorrow.
He does not know the depths of feeling.
He wounded my heart and then was gone.
Why did I meet his gaze, a stranger's eyes?
He, the cruel one, left me pain.
Why did I meet his gaze?
O crow, devour my body,
Pick at my flesh, bone by bone.
O crow, devour my body,
Pick at my flesh, piece by piece.
But spare my eyes, I beg you, spare them,
For in them, I see the hope of meeting my love.
He knows not love's true meaning,
He knows not how love should be kept.
He has given me only tears.
Why did I meet his gaze, a stranger's eyes?
He, the cruel one, left me pain.
Why did I meet his gaze?
My love, do not misunderstand,
You have left me with no peace.
My love, do not misunderstand,
Your absence burns me day and night.
He does not know what he has done.
Why did I meet his gaze, a stranger's eyes?
He has left me in this state.
Why did I meet his gaze?
He, the cruel one, left me pain.
Why did I meet his gaze?
