1. Tears flow like stars
From excessive yearning

2. Like fire between eyelids
Passions not soothing

3. From longing for loved ones
And I know not what will be

4. Paths have narrowed for me
No breeze blows from a beloved's abode

5. But the tender meaning remains
Frail, confused in mind

6. Sleepless, grieved
O radiant full moon

7. Why have you shunned me?
O rose of cheeks

8. My hopes in you were not false
Gloat not over me, rivals

9. Thinking I'm weakened
Nay, by the Lord of sunsets

10. O gentle gazelle
I trust firmly in my Master

11. To reach the righteous goal
Creator of all creation

12. Eternal, everlasting
Granter, pardoner, provider

13. In the best of hopes
With God, all wishes fulfilled

14. And the guiding bearer of good news
Best of creations, my grandfather

15. The shining full moon
Through him my pride and glory

16. By the pure warner
I'm the aim of my quest

17. Of every art
Despite shunning by companions
