1. He visited me when the night was long
With sleepy eyelids darkly lined

2. Swarthy while his lids from him
Were like the white of an Indian nut

3. He came at a time of love’s delight
When night’s darkness was let down

4. We were lost in the gloom of his
Departure’s sadness when he went

5. And guided us the lightning of a mouth
That smiled from a kissing bud

6. He forbade what law makes lawful
And lawful did his law declare parting

7. He unsheathed the sword of his glance in darkness
And for this darkness forged a chain

8. His temple was bent from him
To one side so it was chained

9. In you O all of wishes
Combined beauty detailed

10. You were absent from my eye but
You are depicted in my heart

11. If you are a second grace
Unique in beauty, you are the first

12. Do not weary though the branch was
Swayed aside by a branch more bending

13. Call out your secret to me, set out to the hills
Frank, seeking the hills, and ask

14. The Sirab hills, is there in their
Mouths for passion a spring?
