1. Rise, O messenger, O dove
Go to the Levant and give my greetings

2. If being away from you was long, O full moon of moons
My soul has had enough of this world, goodbye

3. If being away from you was long, O full moon of moons
O light of my eyes and longing of my heart

4. O, if only we were together in the grave
And time had betrayed us and passed

5. My thoughts of you, O fire and light, remain
Always, my love, night and day

6. O cheeks perfumed and eyes of a houri
O full moon, O gazelle doe, light of lights

7. If your intention was to help the wretched liar
See the state of your companion, the state of the executed

8. See the state of your companion, in any case
After the nurture of the nanny and the broker

9. O beauty, from the great tribulations and horrors
My strength and power are exhausted, and my head has turned white

10. From the afflictions, disasters, and torture
And my heart's sadness increased from the absence of the gazelle

11. Abu Kathil is like the wings of a raven
O sweetness, in your law, killing was made permissible

12. Disappear from me, just, O full moon
Disappear from me, just, O moon of darkness

13. O owner of the robe, O herder of the reins
Take us before nightfall

14. Above, its heat is like the breeze of zephyrs
And take from me, not from me, my soul's greetings

15. See his eyes, O blinker, the eye of Rim
His heart and mind are in the state of the executed

16. O sweetness, killing the soul is prohibited in my law
Prohibited is killing the soul in the law of passion

17. O master of passion, my strength and power are gone
No day when they said the pursuer of passion rests

18. My time passed in afflictions and horrors
O eye, what is your problem, speak

19. My burning in your love is permitted to me
O branches of the lofty palm, today it bent over

20. And the crescent remains a crescent at its beginning
O eye, your wound gushed over its lid

21. And nothing remains of my body except bones
Nothing remains of my body but little

22. O owner of the robe and fine figure
O bird, take my message and go and fly

23. Keep my words secret, O owl and confidant
From early morning, hasten your departure

24. You're a hot hawk from Mukerr
Say the meeting place is at the pond

25. And tell him my soul's pilgrimage place is Muna
And say to him I long for them so much

26. Bring me a response to my message and return promptly
Bring me a response to my message before nightfall

27. From the one whose locks and bushes are plundered
O my mind, no one is like you

28. See my mind how it is deranged by passion for you
Like a flexible branch of acacia, stripped of its bushes

29. Reem is a gazelle that doesn't settle for scrubs
With the belongings, if Abu Kathil gets up and walks

30. With the mattress, and the fabrics, and the cloth
I said, I am the morning star and delight

31. Emerging from under the cheek and veil
