1. I cannot forget her sight as she rose
To the eye amidst the curls of roses

2. And the water dancing with its flow
And the full moon, its brilliance aglow

3. And the night a young man with locks parted
And the branch exhaling the perfume of mandrake

4. The breeze adorned with the scent of basil
Do you know that beauty? Marvel!

5. At the paleness of the rose's hue
And the withering of the narcissus' art

6. And her aloofness though she knew
That no speck can make my eyelid start

7. The spring's hue on the cheek of flowers
The meadow shining, humans delighted

8. O most precious souls and powers
Winter's cold, do you see I'm excited?

9. The passion of love defeats ardor
