My Lady

In the summer I fell in love with my lady,
The aura of purity radiated from her soul as of a baby,

I longed to be with her,
Her whereabouts remained as mysterious as the star,

Finally her beauty like the sun shone from her chamber,
Sounds from within heard I as though she were in danger,

Instantly was I her lover thrown in a state of panic,
I opened the door and right there was I static,

I had searched for my lady day and night,
My soul crumbled from what beheld my sight,

For there she was,
In another man's arms,

He struck me with a scornful gaze,
Fiery was my anger his very soul could it raze,

To her I award a sad applause,
For once again she shredded my heart with her claws.
