1. When, when will you return, beloved people,
Your ancient covenant we will renew,

2. Perhaps, perhaps O deer of the wasteland,
What we have missed will return confirmed,

3. Tending to that land and its dwellings,
And from those meadows descending,

4. When, when will our beloved continue,
For that day of celebration, yes a celebration,

5. Do not abandon, O beloved, your morning draught
And deprive it of your sweet company,

6. I seek refuge in God from your intense separation,
Many excellent ones have fallen for the excellent.
