            For tomorrow's sake, don't skimp with me on wine today.

            I'm confused: should I cry over my heart, or slap my chest?

            She has a habit of torture, but doesn't mean to end the love

            For my weak heart this living in the sorrow house

            Religious people are always praising the Garden of Paradise

            Only a few faces show up as roses

            I agree that I'm in a cage, and I'm crying

            Each time I open my mouth, the Great One says

            My heart is becoming restless again

            My Life had stood–a Loaded Gun

            Further in Summer than the Birds

            Tell all the Truth but tell it slant–
