1. When I wanted to visit the young woman
And a friend who does not get jealous accompanied me

2. My tongue fell silent, beyond hearing
So I kept my secret and spoke openly

3. The embrace grew tight, so her cloak
Became her dress while my dress was my turban

4. And we didn't wrap around each other
Like tree branches entwining, except for our loincloths

5. Conversation was sweet after long separation
And that nearness

6. I drank the sparkle of her eyes intoxicated
But it’s an intoxication without aftereffects

7. As if the darkness with the radiance of her face
Obtained from it and gave to it daylight

8. And my arm left a trace on her cheek
And her bracelet left a trace on my side

9. If a cup was poured between us
Neither of our hands would retain any sediment

10. The long nights have passed fleetingly
While these short nights drag on
