1. Welcome to this gentle breeze
That brought to the infatuated a dream's apparition

2. Wherein the lights of fate did swirl
And in my wakefulness, illumination stood before me

3. If only grief's afflicted could be healed
Or waking life with dreams entwined

4. We had a time that was propitious
When love in my intoxication was my tent's lodger

5. While smooth wine gently down my throat did flow
A vintage draft was my refreshment

6. The nightingale on branches modulated
Far different from my love's consumed passion

7. On love's bedding we recline as though
Our sleep is disturbed, for yearning knows no rest

8. The gazelle's supple grace attracts the hunter
And well I know the way of gentle turns

9. I see my love, while resting by my side
Saying, as radiant as the full moon, "you are complete"

10. His nearness makes life sweet, for he
With his saliva cures all my diseased state

11. His eyes' arrows purposely strike my heart
And make my heart take flight toward that archer

12. By God! Apparition of my soul's core
Return to me the time you consumed in my imaginings

13. Phantoms of a dream, our beings' existence
So watch, I hurl the days' events into disarray
