1. The covenant with Laila watered a weeping one, and clouds
That drag youth behind them and sides.

2. And the inspiration of the time of union when I direct the tearful one
Lamps of beauty, and the hair is an opponent.

3. Nights loyal to Laila, a friend sticking around
As virtuousness has a companion in Damascus.

4. Hopeful for his words and deeds
No wonder hopes in him are sought.

5. He wakes for the important matter, watches over it
So he sang, and sleep fell on the eyelids.

6. And creation said, who is this you are praising
For his skill, where virtues and talents meet?

7. I said to them, Moses of the time, and this
Is his staff in which the king has intentions.
