My God, tell me who you are;
for you make me suffer so much.
Tell me withering heart:
why do you constantly cry?.
Only in you do I have hope
my beloved, my only love.
Because I see that with you one can achieve
the beloved peace of the heart.
If my prayers reach your ears
allay the fire of my passion.
Calm the sorrow that consumes me
and bestow your perfume to my heart.
For God's sake give me your love
and don't make my heart suffer,
the heart that loves you faithfully
with maddening passion.
Don't make me suffer,
have mercy on me, for God's sake.
My God, tell me who you are
for you make me suffer so much.
Tell me withering heart:
why do you constantly cry?.
If my prayers reach your ears
allay the fire of my passion.
Calm the sorrow that consumes me
and bestow your perfume to my heart.
