Boxes of chocolate,
Bouquets of roses for you.
All alone today.
This tanka is meant for you,
Kiss my *** you god of love.

Cupid,
Before valentine's day is over,
Please impale my broken heart with your arrow,
So that my heart can think of someone else,
Because it's not nice to think of someone you lost.

I just killed Amor
I literally shoot him down
It was in selfdefence
Since he was aiming with his arrow

Like I wanna be in love
A death sentence
is by far more painless
So I made the decision
to put this winged baby
In a state of endless *rest

There is a lady sweet and kind
was never face so pleased my mind,
I did but see her passing by
And yet I love her till I die.
Her gesture,motion,and her smiles,
Her wit,her voice my heart beguiles,
Beguiles my heart,I know not why
And yet I love her till I die.
Cupid is winged and doth range,
Her country so my love doth change
But change she earth or change she sky,
Yet will I love her till I die!

አለች ጥሩ እመቤት የምትናፈቅ ሴት

ማራኪ ጥሩመቤት
አለች አንድ የምትናፈቅ ሴት!
አስደሳች ፊቷ
ይሰጠኛል የውስጥ እርካታ!
ሥታልፍ በደንብ አይቼአታለሁ
ግና እስትሞተ አፈቅራታለሁ!
በእንቅስቃሴዋ
በግሩም ፈገግታዋ
በድምጿ
ልቤ ይርዳል፣
ልቤ ለምን አንደሚርድ
ባላወቅም
‘ሷን ማፍቀር አላቆምም!
‘ንደሚታወቅው ኩፒድ
(የፍቅር መላክ )
ክንፍ ስላለው
የሚጓዝ ነው፣
ፍቅሬ ወደ መሬት
ወይ ወደ ሰማይ ብትቀየር
አላቆምም ‘ሷን ማፍቀር!

Let me tell you a story
About a girl and a boy,

He's got a cupid's arrow,
But he plays it like a toy.

The person she trusted was her friend
was setting up another tent.
She could act like she doesn't care,
She could act like she would dare
To look.
But to see him smiling at her best friend,
In a way that a lover would?

It really cuts her through
her root.

Dear God,
and stupid cupid
will you ever send me
someone that I love can back?

The boys hand me their hearts
and I hand it back,
later their bodies are found
from an apparent heart attack.
