1. He concealed the secrets of passion, silent,
So he spent the night free from blame.

2. Until the doves of the valley cried out with it,
Calling out - so the doves overflowed with passion.

3. It stirred the heart of a poet, your eloquent lover,
Who wandered, crazed, in the valley of the beloved.

4. The lightning excites him when it flashes with
The scent of the beloved, sniffing and perceiving.

5. Weeping from the two opposites, miserable,
And sleepless from joy, singing,

6. Cheerful in the branch, sorrowful,
Pouring tears poured out, pouring.

7. Bina'man watered my tear with the beauty of his cheek
And I sensed none but him kissing.

8. The cheek of beautiful Bina'man threw at me
A spear, and from his eyelids, a sharp sword.
