.......

Listen to the reed, how it complains
and tells a tale of separation pains.
"Ever since I was cut from the reed bed, my lament has caused man and woman to moan.
I want a bosom torn my separation,
to explain the pain of longing.
Everyone who is far from his source
longs for the time of being united with it once more.
