1. The cavaliers have melted for her in love
With tears flowing for her sake and hearts aching

2. And traits like the soft breeze, yet purer
Than the drizzling rain and more virtuous

3. And coquetry, auspicious and skillful
A person whose freshness seems to drip

4. And fingers that have harnessed their breaths
For those hopeful, for the clouds are subservient

5. And virtues appear like brides
So thoughts in his mind are provoked

6. And gracefulness that makes swords envious
Of all she does or commands

7. So one scowls in anger, white in his sheath
And another darkly thunders

8. She dove in seas and flew to the sky
So pearls are strung and stars scattered

9. O son of nobles, be gentle, protective and lofty
Be generous, for you are blossoming stars

10. They went like passing clouds, leaving behind
A fragrance, as spring arrives and spreads

11. O you, if days make mistakes
They come repenting to your outstretched hand

12. Far from you to neglect a loyal friend
Whose love is pure, though life troubled

13. He enslaves talents for your glory
And his famed praise of you flows freely

14. Praise that trails its train behind Jarir
Arrogantly, with many falling short of it

15. A fortune whose paths to it were rugged
So when I stride toward it, I stumble

16. Until I turn my hopes toward you
The road is smooth, the impossible accessible

17. You remain the delightful goal of gifts
With life you build generosities and prosper

18. The clouds remember your generous palm
And like remembers like
