1. She swayed between the thundercloud and the mist
A girl falling into a flimsy veil

2. My affection for her is tender, not harsh
Such is the way of graceful gazelles

3. The morning breeze blows her this way and that
Like strands of rope swinging in the wind

4. The beauty mark on her cheek is my excuse
Adorning her handsome, radiant face

5. She flirts with me as the stars grow dim
And the darkness of night spreads its wings

6. She offers me wine, and how delightful
Is the offering of wine from a companion

7. When her smile widens and her lips part
With the melody of a gentle voice

8. Filling my hearing with ample pearls
And filling my sight with strung gems
