We met at church
You were a priest
I'm a maiden
Our paths meetYou were handsome
But looks strict
Amidst all this
You're liked by manyBut I was different
Despite your looks
I was indifferent
I didn't like youOne day we met
You helped me
Then gradually
We became closerYou were kind
You were nice
And I felt joy
Seeing this side of youTime flies
You said you like me
Then I told you
I like you tooBut our love was wrong
A violation of a rule
So we cut ties
Leave each other's side.
