1. My heart yearns for the charming one with flashing smiles
From his lips, and for the slender and flexible one

2. It awakens and sleeps in the flames of passion
As if it is from the worshippers of idols

3. Oh how I wish I knew if there is ever a quencher for my fire
And if there will ever be a second for my tears

4. For my nights in their ongoing stay
Are like the chest of Ibn Khujja Askar al-Diwan

5. A man of great worth among all people
I forgot the majesty of the Ottoman state

6. He is unmatched in beauty except
That no two disagreed on his uniqueness

7. He is from the Turks who adorned themselves
With beauty, although he is a Khagan

8. I believed in the miracles of his beauty
And I learned the basics of faith

9. O you who when your smiling flashes
Clouds pour from the eyelids

10. And when you bend like a tender branch
The raven cries out on a slender branch

11. Weigh your beauty among people and you would outweigh
As the sun is known to be just on the scale
