I hate (odi) and I love (amo). Perhaps you ask me (fortasse requiris) why I do this (quare id faciam). I do not know (nescio), but I feel it to be happening (sed fieri sentior) and I am in agony (excrucior - literally 'on the rack').

What's with the Latin (((Seals))) ? I used to be really good at Latin in school, but it has all gone now. What made you think of this little gem ? It's like I'll Never Fall In Love Again by Bacharachius, only better and shorter. I think you have a point about the woman's name btw.

It's been a long time since I studied Latin, but it means very roughly something like...
(not sure about Odi? )
I hate and I love. How or why I will make it perhaps seek again, I do not know, but (you cause? fieri) I feel and I am tormented.
A younger Latin scholar could help I bet!

Love and hate: Wherefore it brought about, perhaps to ask, unknowing, but to become feeling and hardened. (That's the best I could do with my latin dictionary still at school) I'd venture to say that it is 65-90% correct.
