1. Every situation of love has a secret
That brings joy to the lover, settlement and publication

2. Our loved ones, do not make estrangement your nature
For estrangement is the most difficult thing for the people of passion

3. We have been patient with the sweetness and bitterness of time
But with you, patience has never been possible

4. Your love is what is sought, whether it passes or settles
And in it is the same for us, the sweetness and the bitterness

5. How beautiful is the breaking of the covenant and preserving affection
From religion, as in preserving it we have been commanded

6. The path of the betrayers is dark even if
In their claim, dawn seems to shine upon it

7. And no matter how high they rise, their star must fall
Their beginning must be erased and the secret laid bare

8. And the religion of passion, O you who have enchanted us with their love
And the embers of their estrangement have ignited our youth

9. When we mention how much our hearts yearn
With passion for the sighs that soften even rock

10. And from wonder, none have erred in mentioning you
Without shedding a tear beyond what nature affords

11. The stars did not shine if your light was absent
Nor did the earth become lush, or the full moon gleam

12. You have taken residence in the plains of hearts
So neither Zayd nor Amr know what you conceal

13. Do not blame us if we are infatuated with your love
For the essence of your love is a kind of inebriation
