I shall not cry,
I shall not feel the pain.
My life is full of sorrow,
I shall not die in vain.

I shall not weep,
I shall not face my fears.
My heart is broken in two,
I shall not shed some tears.

I shall not howl,
I shall not end my life now.
My life is such a wreck,
I shall not break my vows.

I shall not mourn,
I shall not make my life worse.
I shall not keep so sad,
For love is nothing but the devil's curse.
