To the only begetter of these sonnets To the well-wishing adventurer in setting forth
I Shamino, valiant adventurer, Homo malicious Adored from mine earliest hour, Magnanimously, thy presence on all dost shower Infinite love! By life thou dost devour, Non-fading and delicious, Our charming love, sweetest power.
II My heart is a chest of bitterness Since we are apart A harness of teardrops I fear lest I should fall from some height On my shoulder The weight In mine heart The pain Why wait? Why explain? Shamino Dost thou not know how to care?
III Since the War of Mondain One meory I keep When beyond these realms Thinking of us I weep Is there one more Chance to meet under the elms?
IV Never this warrior's destiny allowed his love to gain Though restless, roving on adventure proud He traversed off the land And off the main But love is like a grain It needs a tender hand To grow, flourish and mature The Wrath of Mondain Destroyed our bond Thy past thou shalt nurture For greater future in the worlds beyond
V Sunset over the main gate Going thy way I stare at thee Breathing in thy scent I start the ascend Hastily Blasting thee with a spectral spell I shimmer away
VI Beneath the yew Thoughts of thee Keep me warm and jolly Raindrops like dew On a lily's petal Gently brushing my skin Cleansing for the soul What a delight Never too soon Watching my reflection In the river As doth the Harvest Moon Night after night In this season
VII Shamino, shadow of thee appear Before mine eyes all the year I see the main road clear Winding down to thy castle Where the winds whistle There, at night I delight At the magic sight Of spectral spells like thunder On thy neck, warrior Thou shalt not abandon me.
