1. Will our past days return,
And keep these obstacles away from us?

2. You left, so I started sleeping less
After you left, I became lost and aimless

3. My tears almost burst forth
When I remember you, they increase

4. To me, death and sleep
Are the same, unless you return

5. Our nights were white with you
And now they are black

6. The rose season used to make me happy
When the flowers bloomed

7. It used to be shamed by
The blush on the cheeks of my loved ones

8. In a gathering where palms
Were scattered with fresh blooms

9. And narcissus bending
In stems of turquoise that do not wither

10. You left, and all of that
Means nothing to me now

11. My disappointment made the loyal one sad
With what made the envious happy

12. Time used to be sweet when
My loved ones were present

13. But time wronged me
Now patience without them is shackled

14. How strange is one who settled away
While he is far from me

15. I have a sigh like fire
Whose heat my firm heart breathes out

16. I am wretched, yet I was fortunate
To be close to them once

17. I swore I have no celebration
On this feast day without them

18. Neither sorrow nor tears approached me
When will the messenger say to us

19. Their caravan is coming back?
Alas! What we hope for from fate is far
