I live and will die by you

It is my memory of you

            That kindles my spirit.

It is the same memory

            That swindles my heart.

My head is full with your thought.

My bed is sore from the same thought.

Day by day pain aggravates;

The same way does my plight.

It is my memory of you

            That gives me joy.

It is the same memory

            That sends me to loss.

You throw on me the day and the night.

I enjoy both in different lights.

I cherish you in my memory;

I may perish by the same memory
