1) The charming verses, I find
Fail me in the expression
Of my strong emotions
Surging in my bosom.

2) Let me be a musician,
To play upon my heart-strings.
Let the touching melodies
Resound in the vast universe.

3) Through the music only
Can my emotions be conveyed
Into the boundless space,
Shaking the whole galaxy.

4) They'll outlive the stern Time
Though immortal He is.
They'll echo in each heart,
No matter young or old.

5) They are surging in my bosom
Like angry sea on the beach;
They are stifling me in my sleep
Like a dead weight on my chest.

6) Let me be a musician,
To play upon my heart-strings.
Let the melodies from them
Convey my strong emotions away
Into the boundless universe,
Swelling, resounding, and shaking all!
