The basilisk’s cruel eyes and poisoned glance | |||
take a man’s life away, | |||
and you, with eyes powered by love, | |||
steal the heart of anyone who looks at you. | |||
The asp, full of deadly venom, | |||
shuts its ears to pleas for mercy, | |||
and you, cruel asp with cruel intent, | |||
make yourself deaf to my bitter grief. | |||
The sirens, with the sweetest of songs, | |||
lure sailors to their death, | |||
and you, with eyes powered by love, | |||
steal the heart of anyone who looks at you. | |||
So, drained of hope in this life, | |||
I will go on living, loving and weeping. | |||
Love, making me suffer endlessly, | |||
made you a basilisk, an asp, a siren. }} | |||
