Translation of the verses of this poem in English :
For you my love
I went to the bird market
And I bought birds
For you my love
I went to the flower market
And I bought flowers
For you my love
I went to the junkyard
And I bought chains
For you my love
I went to the slave market
And I looked for you
But I didn’t find you
My love”
