1. My longing burns like fire from your abandonment
And you think it is spilling tears

2. None realized it
Except a youth who stayed

3. On the bed of sickness
He knew my story

4. So he emulated my agony
And joined my flowing tears

5. And we cooed together mournfully like doves
For only the sad know the grieving heart

6. They blamed me for indifference and arts
A boy with eyeliner drawn sharp

7. His cheeks marked with lam and noon
Saying, union with one like me will not happen

8. What cutting swords are your eyelids
That if unsheathed

9. Would destroy mankind
And what a boy you are

10. Like kohl on the eyelid
Noble of cheek

11. Compassionate at heart
I wept blood seeing him so sad

12. As if I was weeping from my own grieving eye
My friend scolds me for my swooning

13. And swears he will not taste the wine of pleasures
Gently, how can I ask for a drink

14. And about a leg circling around the empty wine cups
With a cup making the fingers ruddy

15. Releasing the knots of repenting souls
And breaking their rope

16. So cease your blaming
And start with the wine

17. It's time for joy
Take O my dear

18. The henna dye of coffee
And don't stretch out to a sworn oath

19. For what use is the oath of a hennaed hand
Connect me to her and help my quest

20. You waste my wealth and your advice is useless
A rising king praised in every glory

21. His generosity almost exceeds rightfulness
All longing souls seek shade under his generous hand

22. And find under its shadow
Shelter from the hot sun

23. With all kinds of speech
Like the cooing of doves

24. So many gifts
Erased so much sorrow

25. And so much praise
Resonates within every listener

26. An ardent lover, when night falls
Remembers the union of his beloved so is sleepless

27. Thus one who loves eyelids and teeth
Had sleep robbed by his eyeliner

28. Leaving me because of them
When darkness descends, my eyes are sleepless

29. And my sorrow rages
Over she who allowed my murder

30. And in the land of lovers there is no safety
Let them look into the hearts of Muslims
