The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day.
I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument.
The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only there is the agony of wishing in my heart…..
I have not seen his face, nor have I listened to his voice; only I have heard his gentle footsteps from the road before my house…..
But the lamp has not been lit and I cannot ask him into my house;
I live in the hope of meeting with him; but this meeting is not yet.
