1. The beauty of glory asked the glory of beauty
Did he intend union for me or did the intention of union come to me

2. It sways gently, yes, and it yearns
Like a twig of frankincense or the gaze of a gazelle

3. His forehead gleams and his hair is black
Like a full moon shining in the darkness of nights

4. He shows you the gems of words scattered
From a mouth that has contained the strings of pearls

5. Imagine if he smiles in the wings of night
As if lightning flashes from the crescent moon

6. His cloak is soft while his heart is harsh
And his state with me - yes, every state

7. He prolongs his smile if I weep
Mocking me, oh what a man!

8. And he shows no evidence in his love
Of hardship, but only hints

9. He has certainly fallen in love with beauty
And I’m content to be one of his loyalists

10. And I won’t be satisfied with my freedom after my enslavement
To him, ever, even if the master frees me

11. May God protect him, he is a rising moon
Sailing the horizons in perfection

12. He sees lawful gain in avoiding sin
Knowing that is lawful for me

13. The blamer blamed me wrongly and said in ignorance
Revealing: did I ask and what was revealed to me?

14. After blaming, do you ask anything?
I said: yes, the one who blamed me

15. So kill me in competing for his love
Beauty within beauty within beauty
