For her smile or tears without cause! For me the real worries! For me sacrifice and its burning vigil, The silence and boredom of expressing nothing, Like the novice lover who thinks it's wonderful That one day someone will love him! For me to no longer read on her pale face The stormy signs of a celestial future! For her the treasures of melancholy, The peace of remembrance; Remorseless sleep with the faithful swarm And light dreams of fearless love! Love! golden bee! oh all the honey for her, And the sting for me!"
