I saw a truly beautiful girl
Who showed me the fence of the world
Even the shining sun was amazed
As she left my forehead with salt glazed
I was once a river flowing so free
Now I'm a river with no place to be
I couldn't even look at my own reflection
As those who liked me lost all affection
Oh God, please punish the one who betrayed
And left my salty forehead dismayed
I gave love to a flower, it blossomed bright
I gave love to beauty, only to lose my sight
I told a friend my secret, he sold it in greed
Why did they commit such a sinful deed?
I didn't know the pain of many beauties
Until I was left with my own heart's casualties
Mother, don't cry for your son's fate
I was once bad, but now I contemplate
I'd rather die without being such a man
Than live with a salty forehead, as I can't stand
But as a river, I still flow so much
People still like me, as I keep in touch
With the ones who truly love and care
I fly in the sky, with laughter in the air....
