1. The nightingale sings
A melody in the darkness of the nights

2. Reminding the lover
Of nights of intimacy and union

3. So it clothed me in worry
Longing for the one I love, while my state is narrowed

4. And my heart is sick
The fire of estrangement burns inside me

5. My liver melted and my heart yearns
And my tears on my cheek

6. Flow profusely
Also, sleep eluded my eyelids

7. A lovesick, obsessed lover
My people did not elegy for me

8. Suffering and worried
In your love I am passionate while you are indifferent

9. How much sweetness we tasted
For the sick lover, tortured

10. And the body is tired
From the fire you lit inside me

11. No, and the One who created us
Did not make you affectionate or loving towards us

12. The infatuated one knew
I loved you and you wanted separation

13. Do not kill me unjustly, my beloved
My wish among people, my healer

14. You have towards me what no one knows
In you, my intimate friend

15. I have tasted the bitterness, such is my state
From you I cannot smell

16. Carry my burden as the camel does
My charmer, be gentle

17. By God, do not neglect a loving companion
You have made me delicate, be affectionate

18. By uniting, that is your aim in my torment
The mind has weakened

19. Since the day I loved you, my youth is lost
Always infatuated

20. With your love, O Yusuf of beauty
O one with beautiful eyes, O one with a shining cheek

21. Delicate hands, tall in stature
Pomegranate calves, unique full moon

22. How much, how much, how much, how much
How much shall I praise you, O embodiment of beauty

23. And the poem concludes
With the Guided One from misguidance
