Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The time which we had wasted, had passed forever
The love which we had tasted, is now disgraced

For years we had aparted been,
Now it's like centuries for me
Less forlorn I might be,
If it has been only a dream...

Line by Line Meaning

The time which we had wasted, had passed forever
The moments we spent together without any purpose or fulfillment are gone forever, never to return.

The love which we had tasted, is now disgraced
The romance we experienced has become a source of shame and embarrassment, tarnishing how we once felt.

For years we had aparted been,
We've been separated for a long time, enduring the pain and loneliness of being apart from each other.

Now it's like centuries for me
The long period of time that has passed since we last saw each other feels like an eternity to me, every moment dragging on indefinitely.

Less forlorn I might be,
I would feel less lonely and miserable if it turned out that all of this was simply a dream or illusion.

If it has been only a dream...
If the love we shared was not real, but instead a figment of our imaginations, then perhaps the pain of our separation would be lessened.
