1. I am enthralled by his eloquent tongue, his face, and his steadfast love.
I embrace the one whose stature is lofty.

2. His glances reveal pearly teeth beneath his veil.
He lowered his scarf over his mouth,

3. Offering a flower to the one with doe eyes.
He gathered his tresses while asking

4. About the silk of his brocade robe from Khosrowan.
He melts with yearning for the howling of hounds

5. When we are joyous and ready for the hunt.
I greet him with roses and jasmine,

6. So he inclines towards fenugreek and ebony.
And he longs among us for the howling of wolves

7. When we are joyous and ready for the hunt.
So O Beduoin, the arrows of your eyelashes

8. Have slain your guests around the eyelids.
If your creed is to guard the prey,

9. Say: “You are under my protection and safe.”
