1. The caller of passion importuned weakness, so it complied
A heart came to it, and were it not for the memory of her, it would have been lost

2. She recited to us the folds of passion in lines
Since we saw her eyes, we have not forgotten them

3. And she introduced to us their meanings that dazzled
The ways of love, so we understood when we understood her

4. I shunned sins and what is beneath the veil for her
And I did not violate her sanctity, rather I protected her

5. O seeker of love, go slowly, for the pursuit of it
Makes the heedless forget, with most of it, God

6. And do not wish for matters whose inner reality is ruin
For many a soul has ended in its demise

7. The most beneficial of possessions is piety, the most sublime
If we place souls in it, we elevate them
