If I Could Fly Like a Dove

Love is not a sin
But what kind of love is this! 
It gives me sorrow
And do away with my peace! 

Love is like a game
But why I can't win this game! 
Despite hard effort
It destroys my name and fame! 

Why I fall in love
With the girl I should not love! 
Why she makes me feel
If I could fly like a dove! 

I would go somewhere
Far away from this country
Where someone else would
Love me more than she loves me!
