1. No harm from those whose hearts have journeyed far away,
If only they had kept his company an hour before they left.

2. Rather they abandoned him lying wounded by their abandonment,
With tears flowing ceaselessly from his eyelids.

3. He remains calling out while yearning perturbs him,
O beloved of my poetry, wherever they lodged.

4. My passion has melted away and patience failed,
Tears flooded my eyes and my insides ignited.

5. So my heart is aflame and my eyes overflowing,
Patience is severed and passion connected.

6. O you whose separation melted my heart in sorrow,
Be gentle with a lover whose stratagems have narrowed.

7. He remained wakeful through the night you slept
With the sweetness of slumber adorning your eyelids.

8. No harm in showing mercy to one scarcely aided,
As the plain and mountain tightened around him because of you.
