Although I sat in the fire up to my neck, now I am in the water of union with my beloved up to my neck.
I said that I am immersed in your kindness up to my neck, but my beloved was not satisfied with me up to my neck.
He said, "Bow your head and go to the depths of love," because this task cannot be done up to the neck.
I said, "My head, oh dear, is your sandal, but be satisfied this time, oh two eyes, up to the neck."
He said, "Are you less than a thorn that waits for flowers, buried in the soil for nine months up to the neck?"
I said, "What is a thorn that for your garden, I have sat in blood like a flower many times up to the neck?"
He said, "In love, you have escaped the world of struggle, where you were dragged into servitude up to the neck."

Stop speaking finally, for that breath was cut off, as there was no end to the speech up to the neck.
