1. I explained to my love the love I have for you all
And though I tried, my soul could not be patient

2. Whoever thought I lacked in piety and virtue
I'm far more righteous in God's view than their assumptions

3. Oh beautiful Yusuf, since I first saw you
With many thoughts, I said "This is good news!"

4. If you feared I'd blame you, don't worry
After hardship, they say, is ease

5. And I told my blamers, "Don't you know love?
In this you have done something improper"

6. A glimpse of you cured my lovesick heart
Blessed is he who sees it again

7. Any blamer of love that blamed me
God has made things easy for him on the left side
