The light burning on the grave

My life's lamp burned out, she came to light a lamp on my grave, but her tears extinguished it.

Graveyard

After extinguishing the lamp of my life,

she came to light a lamp on my grave.

But the rain of her tears

extinguished all the lamps on my grave.

The moon arrived and illuminated the grave,

the light I yearned for in life

was now illuminating my grave after death.
