1. Another is able to change me
And I am unique among lovers

2. I have a secret in love
And Allah knows best what is hidden

3. And my heart is like a branch
Upon which a bird always rests

4. Sweet is the talk, though it
Split my veins with its sweetness

5. I complain and thank his actions
Strange for a complainer to be thankful

6. Do not deny the fluttering of my heart
While the beloved is present for me

7. The heart is nothing but his home
For which I have spread the good news

8. O you who has left an example in his love
Of examples that flow

9. Never is my talk in vain
Except what is recorded in books

10. O night, you have no other end
That hopes, nor an end to longing

11. O night, dawn, O longing, blood
I am patient with both states

12. For you I have the reward of a fighter
If it is true that the night is an infidel

13. My eye and the eye of a star
Both keep vigil in you

14. The full moon congratulates you for its presence
If only my full moon were present

15. So it would show to my eyes
Which of them is more radiant and brilliant

16. My full moon is softer in beauty
And the difference is clear
