1. Their homes time's hand has not changed
Nor ceased the Good to water you and be generous

2. You approached the staunch heart with purpose
And every heart is staunchly attached to you

3. We called you, sick, had you responded healing
Yet you heard not, for we are far from you

4. Debts upon us the creditor claims
So I repay but with life forsaken

5. The night is dark but dawn in you arises
For each new moon you brought auspiciousness

6. Our nights confused us with purpose and we scattered
United roots now sundered and dark

7. The circles of this world spin with their people
Diminishing the youth but increasing his woe

8. My bliss of Sa'di for loss joined ranks
So the nights in my eyes turned white to black

9. For them my tears and my love fourfold
Where can I find the incense I desire?

10. To her at parting I gave a pledge
And said "Keep it, I shall return anew"
