Hacked Down

To the great mountain tops to see the heavens!
And cutting through the thick forest to find my way through;
But my enemies hacked down the carved pavements.
The signs are there but you cannot see them,
So why do you still sleep my love?
For you are so beautiful among the daughters of women,
And honour is poured out from your sweet lips.
