Sleep

Sleep has not visited me the whole night,

Will the dawn ever come?

O my companion,

Once I awoke with a start from a dream.

Now the remembrance from that vision

Never fades.

My life is ebbing as I choke and sigh,

When will the Lord of the Afflicted come

I have lost my senses and gone mad,

But the Lord knows my secret.

He who deals out life and death

nows the secret of Mira's pain.
