1. A gazelle turned away from you, that was never turned away,
So watch out for the traps of lions.

2. One whose eyes cast a spell,
From which no knots can be untied.

3. The brilliance of her smile shines over pearls,
And flashes of lightning and cold pebbles.

4. The musk scents her cheek,
And the aroma of coffee and honey.

5. And the darkness of night on an eyelid,
Like the soul leaving its body.

6. And the rhythmic beating of water in a stream,
Its essence is like beads of pearl.

7. And as if Moses appeared,
In the horizon with his white hand.

8. Woe to me for the loss of the days of my youth,
And my slavery to the bonds of old age.

9. In all my qualities is my nature,
Either faithful to my happiness or suppressed.

10. Her cheek cannot be reached,
So she stands and sits arrogantly.

11. The color of ruby and its hardness,
Are in her gums and liver.

12. And she has on a frightening neck,
Jewelry she crafted from shells.

13. She broke off my relationship by her coquetry,
With separation and my sleep with worry.

14. And the arrows of separation struck me,
Between the white and the toil.

15. I wonder at the accuracy of her shooting,
From the depths of my ribs to the eternities.

16. O fire of my vigor, where is your flame?
And where is your burning brand in my kindling?

17. Zend gave birth to you, and she became barren,
Unable to carry miscarriages, so she did not give birth.

18. You brought to life my dead youth,
Which I cry over as I go along with eternity.

19. And you sought the opposite to create it,
While I ardently resist, but do not find.

20. Had there been a generous one whom you miss,
He would be ransomed with the soul, I would have been redeemed.

21. I removed sorrow with distraction,
And with it I removed the dirt from my hands.

22. And I have regretted, the regret of the penitent,
With my glances and my pretensions.

23. With a freed slave girl who came and brought
Drinks of delight renewed.

24. She was captured with swords of gold,
From the people of Saturday or Sunday.

25. And if her lifetime is counted,
She fills your palms with numbers.

26. There float in her cup seeds,
Like the small nails of a necklace.

27. And when the water sinks with them,
In the fire, it turns into foam.

28. And I dispelled worries with the daughter of the vine,
And the melodies of the lute, so they did not return.

29. And I remained with my ears inclined
To the singing of the one with the warbling voice.

30. So now I have avoided intoxication,
And did not want the frequenting of vanity.

31. And I dispelled the sleep of oblivion from the eyelids
By the awakening of integrity.

32. And I broke the vows of drinking,
I have no affection left for the people of the monastery.

33. I do not drink what I describe,
So it is as if I am sitting with them.

34. And I moved my determination from a land
Whose feet touched the Divine Throne, to the land

35. Of the ship’s belly, wrestling
My time and riding high seas.

36. And I found religion good support,
So I took refuge in faith.

37. The everlasting leaned on an eternal king,
Aided by the Unique, the Eternal.

38. Like the sun, one who comes close to it,
Sees its brilliance, and one far sees its light from you.

39. And when one who went astray in the darkness of night
Sees its brilliance, they are guided.

40. She was distinguished with an integrity,
Of a sincere nature and refined speech.

41. He makes no promises of generosity, and one who
Begins with a gift does not promise.

42. And with the intention of a victorious valor,
For the beautiful belief in God.

43. Thus he protects honor with what
His hands offered the delegation from captivity.

44. And he closes the breach, and his conduct
Flows rightly in the kingdom.

45. He unleashes his lions against every turmoil,
And his hands flow towards every side.

46. And your insight shows you today,
What the conscience of tomorrow conceals from you.

47. And he has ambitions that build heights,
Distinguished with lofty uniqueness.

48. The inspiration of religion and its protector
Straighten your authority, people of affection.

49. The outstanding by what they have mixed
With your dust, an eye in hopes.

50. And the wind behind you is faltering,
Stumbling in the valleys and the highlands.

51. A victory you were supported with,
And the arm is given relief by the shoulder.

52. O rain of the homeland, without lies,
And brave of war, without weakening.

53. The moments of your moaning, their side
Is more bitter than aloes in your anger.

54. And your banner, its awe advances,
With numbers that gather in multitude.

55. And it is as if your enemy’s heart
Flutters with the wing of a trembling heart.

56. If I fell short, feathered,
In aiming the conclusive, the renewed.

57. Then the little is still good with its scarcity,
And the principle depends on the pillar.

58. And the great mass of water with its abundance,
There is no comfort in it for a thirsty one.

59. And poetry, I found with my knowledge,
A friend against its bizarre perplexity.

60. If I wanted, I would say to a rhyme
In meter that comes humbly to you my cheek.

61. With refined words, filtered,
No ear passes it with blocking.

62. No falsity in it to show you motes
In the eye of a critical observer.

63. No listener hears in it
The groans of sorrow like the seeking one.

64. So the warbling of the nightingale is relative
In the branches, its voice is like the birds.

65. You appreciate the return of its reciter
And you say, when he increases, increase!

66. So in the clouds of spring is its sweetness
And its heaviness is the roar of the lion.

67. And it fulfilled the humiliation of the people of Saturday
And the people of Sunday are humiliated to it.

68. So help and pride yourself and manage and indicate
And dutiful and generous and overwhelming and bar.
