My darling friend, that is not to tell. Tell me my darling friend, tell me, tell meDo not keep me in unknown fear only to make me weaker. Tell me my darling friend, tell me, tell me. However immense the ill-luck be All will have to be borne by me, Only tell Is he really well ? : About his good tidings and all How shall I utterImpeding my throat Is my tearful agony That is hard to bear.
