I swear by Universe that the Sun never rose nor set,
Except that each breath of mine was infused with your love.
I never spoke to friends alone;
But in every gathering You were the subject of my sight.
In happiness and sorrow I did not think of anything;
But that which You had whispered to me.
Nor did I hope to drink in thirst
Until I saw Your reflection in the cup.
If it were in my nature
I would cherish You in every breath.
