1. My bird flies without rest, I do not ask it to stop for a moment
O people of virtue, why don't you watch over one who watches?

2. My tears pour and the fire of my passion does not die down
And my heart shows obedience to love

3. I wander, fasting from the love of others
My night stays awake, I do not sleep a moment of it

4. I complain of passion, but you only respond with indifference
So have mercy on a slave whose pains you have diversified

5. I have no patience, how can I be patient, O full moon?
For this separation has made my greedy soul miserable

6. Separation and sorrow have overwhelmed me, and the ardour of passion does not bring relief
Like the nightshade, but my soul is quarrelsome

7. Separation has shown me all kinds of sorrows and love for the beautiful one
Has soared in me beyond restraint

8. The persistence of indifference has left no strength for the suffering one
And the softness of the hand kindles its greed
