1. Had it not been for passion, his yearning would not have melted,
A downpour struck by the eyes of his eyes.

2. A lost lover whom his passion cannot guide,
Except by what it hears of his moaning.

3. He began to fear rabbits in their burrows,
And does not fear lions in their dens.

4. Reasonability apologizes for his misguidance,
And the mind recites his madness.

5. O neighbors of the alive, sympathize with a lover,
Whose state did not swerve from the law of love and his religion.

6. His essence is better than his appearance,
And his doubt is clearer than his certainty.

7. Do not think that what flows above his cheek
Are tears pouring from his eyelids,

8. But rather the ice of his heart melted,
So his eyelash drips from its spring.
