1. The beloved visited and revived me, so he revived me
Since he abandoned me, sleep has abandoned my eyes

2. How much passion I conceal, while my eyes reveal it
In every eye of mine are two eyes full of tears

3. Passion exhausted me when a caged bird moaned
Calling out to Suhayr, cooing plaintively

4. She moaned and then confessed, though tears did not confess
Nor did my tongue confess, yet my sadness exposed me

5. I sacrifice anyone who saw my sickness and health
Except he laughed in wonder and made me cry

6. My heart sees him from afar, so alas
My fervor to ward off the charming beloved

7. Who saw a moist branch on a sandy hill
Fruitful with apples from Lebanon before him

8. I hid until even if a specter approached me
It wouldn't see my bed, even if it spied on me

9. O you who ask me what afflicted me
I wasted away, and my passion does not fade
