1. The delicate heart is prince over hearts
To it belong femininity and masculinity

2. Flirtatious between coquetry and passion
If light is absent from it, light comes to it

3. All called it fickle or inconstant
As for me, I am a twitterer and chatterer

4. Shall we praise the bright sun at dawn
And blame a moon that gives light in darkness?

5. No man prefers females over males
Except his resolves are weakened

6. What is the difference between them? Their beating is the same
This is vigour and that is elixir

7. Whoever is not perfected by their union
His joy and perplexity are maimed

8. One who gathers charms for beauty, a collector
Through it, secrets become visible and illuminated

9. For fickleness is a praised habit
As is roving, a commended amusement

10. And if gardens have varied flowers
Their beauty increases, and the observer rejoices

11. I have no trick to restore my grey hair
And the beautiful houris keep away from me

12. The coquetry and passion have become estranged
As if I am the Questioner and Denier

13. Does the seabird reproach me for its grey locks
That I may visit them, perhaps visiting helps
