1. The one who asked me is like Suli al-Dahhani
Sweet meanings excite me in passion

2. My body aches from the melodies of love
Oh my eyes shed tears profusely

3. Oh my eyes, shed your tears
My heart is in constant pain

4. When my worries overwhelm me
They burn my chest and burden my back

5. Oh worries, what is this pain you bring me
You have left me like an old ragged garment

6. The love that tore me apart did not hurt me
With the love of the gentle gazelle he allured me

7.
With the love of the soft neck, I lost my soul

8. And my eyelids shed tears on my cheek
If you hear me, oh the one I love

9. Your deep wound needs healing oils
I said the medicine is not found in the lands of Turks

10. Nor is the end of his beauty found
Sweet meanings, nothing sweeter than his lips

11. No other like him is found amongst the charming ones

12. If you do not find what I found, you will not find comfort
The shepherd of dangling black hair

13. Above his chest like the eyes of a gazelle
If he looked upon the lands, he would invite me

14. This is my medicine, we were destined to meet
I admired his beautiful cheeks

15. And smelled the greeting that began our gathering
I wish I was healed from my pain long ago

16.
I wish the ointments would heal my wounds

17. If I see myself suffering in body and soul
My soul does not rest, oh how it tosses and turns

18. And if I sleep, my specter wakes me up
My insomnia from my passion is little

19. The night's wing does not cover me like the sick
Whoever sees me thinks I am lovesick like Qays

20. From the heat of my fire, death itself keeps its distance

21. From the heat of my fire they stay away from me
If they hear my moaning above the pillow

22. They say I am crazed, but my mind is sound
This is love, I have no madness in my head

23. This is love, and the ecstasy of passion stirs it
Everything I conceal, the embers of love reveal it

24.
Tormented are my eyes with passion

25. Many scenes are witnessed by the maidens of paradise

26. Many scenes begin with it
That which is like the honeycomb in its cells

27. Conversations as sweet as the humming of bees
Above the chest of a delicate and soft complexion

28.
Above the beautiful shining forehead

29. That is like the full moon in its luminance

30. A perfect face, pure as ivory
In the verses of The Opening and the seven oft repeated

31.
In the verses of The Opening, always protected

32. From the evil of an envious person
The sprouting greenery heals the meadow

33. Producing fruits and flowers

34. Red figs, their sweet dreams golden
Swaying gently in the passing breeze

35.
Shapely waist and hips

36. Whoever sees them unattained says “I am safe”

37. Whoever unattained sees them says “my soul has melted”
Oh, my love, at your gaze my soul melted

38.
Despite the call of death shouting “take me!”

39.
Slay me with your gentle gaze and eyes

40. Every glance is fire to heart and eyes
Leave your lover mixing tears and the eyes

41.
As for the one you have tested, you have tested me

42. At your gaze, my mind is scattered from my head

43. God has tested me in their love to the point of madness
I left her and kept on walking

44.
But my love for her is my limit

45. I called “Oh, her beloved! Without you, oh her”
May God bless you with the sincerity of her affection

46. But safety is in avoiding love and passion's pitfalls
I told her “Repent, and grant me safety”

47. But her brilliance deceived me
The sun blinds the eyes of whoever sees it

48. Then the genius was nourished by her food
And I smelled the fragrance of musk pathways

49. Oh beautiful one, do not deny my affection
Oh eyes that hunt prey, you have loved the nets

50.
I am torn apart by my passionate love

51. Trying my best to stay away from you

52. Oh beautiful, softest cheeks and skin
Oh you with dangling black hair

53.
Oh you with small firm breasts

54. Under the soft silk garment

55. Oh you with arched eyebrows and intoxicating spirit
Oh you with black eyeliner and alluring eyes

56.
Oh you who seduces all the passionate lovers

57. Oh you beautiful Joseph, you gentle at heart
Oh special one, cub of the litter, oh polite one
