1. In the name of the Beloved I hoped for relief
My heart that it would find relief in love

2. And she lured me with false security
Then left the living one telling of a dead one's tale

3. And whenever the cold of separation would depart bringing me joy
The heat of passion stirred up turmoil in my innermost being

4. And I thought plunging into love would be easy for me
Until I delved deep into its immense sea

5. I saw the easiest in it was the most difficult
Which people squandered their lives trying to attain

6. Is there really a way to tranquility if I tread
The ardent lover does not fear the crooked path

7. By my life, this can never be hoped for
How many hopes of lovers in this regard were dashed

8. But with resolute patience I can endure
A burning heart persisted though constricted

9. So be patient and do not despair my heart of relief
Perhaps you may yet return happy with what you wish

10. And time may show in its unseen realm
After despair, luckier days with lamps lit

11. Hardship is followed by ease and perhaps after
Separation, by the door of nearness you will find succor

12. And the winds of union will blow fragrant
So your soul inhales from the scent of reunion relief
