1. I am neither a god nor a demon
So why do you deny me forgiveness?

2. You have sealed your judgment with rejection
Believing in conjecture, O Abdul Hamid the Second

3. If it were not for the remnants of affection
In my heart, I would not have addressed you regarding my case

4. I was excessive with the one who was the full moon of my sky
So I erased the light of your spiritual love

5. It would not harm your grace if you were to return
And cast off the cloak of carnal passion

6. Your estrangement never crossed my mind
Nor did I account for it in my thoughts

7. Yet here I am, in disfavor without crime
So which of us is the offender?

8. Am I, knowing my true essence?
Or you, out of mere whim? Or both of us?

9. Or was it never her fault
To bring such ugliness into the human world?

10. Those nights used to be a pasture
For running around - now gone in moments

11. Such is the punishment of the extravagant
So take responsibility for yourself, away from reckless zeal

12. The pleasures are gone, leaving behind sorrow
As a trace, while the group is in animosity

13. So return to complete, sacred affection
And discard a love with foundations coming apart

14. And reside in a heart firm in its building
And replace it with the dilapidated building

15. No matter how perfected and oiled it is
It is the measure of wickedness, deficient

16. Is it fitting - how regrettable - the sacrifice
Of brotherhood in the temple of Satan?

17. So let us forget the crime, both of us, and return
Instead of violating affection, with forgiveness

18. And recite the scriptures from the book of our brotherhood
Forgetting the madness that was

19. How strange your prolonging the days of misery!
How strange! And the days of bliss are moments
