1. My tormenting beloved, leave me be
I, thirsty, await our meeting

2. How much longer will you make me wait
As estrangement keeps growing

3. Does it please you to kill me
Guiltless, oh beautiful one

4. Prolonged resentment melts me
I, the obsessed, the infatuated one

5. I, the obsessed, the enchanted one
I, crazed with passion in love

6. My feelings held hostage
By the one who has stolen my mind

7. With his smile and the most wondrous eyes
His beauty has seduced me

8. Like the blackness of eyes lined with kohl
My beloved, how long will you delay

9. Our reunion without mercy
While prolonged resentment kills

10. Those lovesick in passion
When will our reunion happen

11. When will this sadness disappear
And I find solace when my eyes

12. Behold the beautiful eyes
Why all this resentment

13. Upon the one who lost his mind
And the injustice of love confused him

14. My migrating beloved, reunite me
So my sorrows may vanish

15. For after you I have fallen ill
And renewed are my grieves

16. Scarce are the tidings that come my way
Heralding my beloved

17. I will give him my soul
If I attain my desire

18. When will my sorrows disappear
When will my love be requited

19. And I pay what I owe
When will our living be serene

20. When will we find solace in union
When will we enjoy intimacy

21. When will God bring me close
To the one I love from afar

22. And take away all my grief
For He is the Giver, the Most Kind
