A dove
Kindled my love
I felt such passion
And longing overwhelmed me
Oh bird, you shook my branches
I did not think you would scare off
The ones that I love
You made me remember
How much I cared about him
As a lover and a beloved
I am taken over with longing
In this love of mine
My heart pours out
Like a candle melting
His eyes are wide
His body and limbs are full
Glistening and coquettish
Like a setting sun
Kindled my love
I felt such passion
And longing overwhelmed me
