1. I have inclinations like those who set out on a journey
In them are affections and sighs from passion

2. May God not make me lonelier than those whom I've avoided
Before sunset, while seekers have voices

3. They left, but alas, they left forcibly
And they left me with lamentations and cries

4. My heart desires nothing but them, though after time
With love for them, forbiddance and affirmation

5. I've shortened my aspirations, or strove for them in vain
And after them I have prolonged sighs

6. They passed quickly, and I did not know their value
Oh beautiful times, those moments

7. I hope the one who ordained the separation will follow it with
A reunion, and God knows hidden matters
