I am envious of the moon
because it illuminates your beauty
of that unwelcome breeze
that when it passes by kisses you
I am envious of the sun
because it warms your skin
of its magical splendour
because I can't stand it
I'm envious of the Roses
that give you their fragrance
I feel envy of the things
that take you away at a distance
I'm envious of your shadow
because it always accompanies you
and of the verse that names you
and of the water that bathes you
I am envious of the road
that you have travelled without me
I feel envy of destiny
because it leaves me without you
