1. Some of your windows overlook Zainab
Youthfulness is no good for the elderly

2. After fifty have passed you by
Still overflowing towards folly

3. Every plump part of the buttocks
Like an unmounted, skinny mare

4. Or a pearl in the moment it was extracted
Before it was defiled or pierced

5. Pale yellow in color, radiant in the morning
Golden brown, like gilded

6. Who will convey from me to the Imam of guidance
The heir of glory, father from father

7. When I speak extensively praising him
I am moderate in speech, not excessive

8. May Allah release me, if you were not
The most pleasant of our time

9. And the East longs for you in the morning
Yearning for you to the West

10. Its pulpit exclaiming in ecstasy for you
With ease and welcome

11. The time which has drawn near delighted it
And before you it was not delighted

12. Passion transported it, and if it were only a pulpit
It would have flown to you rapidly like a shooting star

13. To the beautiful, majestic face
Not terrifying like the angry forest guardian

14. The onlooker cannot see
Except a glance, fearful and guilty

15. If you want money, I am a man
Who has not amassed nor earned money

16. When you take the truth from me, do not
Seek profit or be greedy

17. God has been good to both of us
That the capital did not diminish
