My heart had various longings,
but since seeing you, they’ve all become one
My envied mine envier became, and
I became the lord of mankind, since my lord you became
I left everyone to their world and their religion
busy with my love for you, oh my world and my religion
You lit two fires in my liver:
one between my ribs and the other between my guts.
