1. Where are the days that have passed,
When we scolded the auspicious bird for companionship,

2. And the covenant I had made with the generous,
The turns of fate proceeded with it, how it proceeded!

3. Time separated their group after they were united,
Many benefits were removed by the judgment of fate.

4. Separation ruled regarding their dwellings, so they submitted
To the judgment of parting, a wink from a watcher.

5. Love was severed in my breast from them,
Like the severing of al-Hajjaj to Ibn Jubayr.

6. I have no other companions besides them,
I wonder, do they have anyone else besides me?

7. Whenever their memory passes, my heart says,
"May God remember well those you remembered."
