Who am I, an ugly man, to wish for your affection?
Your voice is true and a melodious sonnet.
Who am I, an aged soul, to search for your loving eye?
Your song is fair and a benevolent embrace.
I am who is entranced by your beauty,
I am who is besotted by your grace.
Your pain I ache to repay with kindness.
I am at a loss at the sight of you,
I am in despair at the thought of you.
Your tears fill my heart with melancholy.
How could you ever learn to love but a weary and broken man, such as I?
Woman of fine linen and silk, a creature of youth and passion, such as you?
Would you be so kind?
