1. Incomprehensible in speech, so take advantage of his singing,
And adorn the face, garden of a singer.

2. My incomprehensibility means an affliction for the Arabs,
Kill the affliction, what concerns you is the cure.

3. Persian who spied the cheek from it,
And a paradise that fills the eyes with bliss.

4. In me a lively fire that burned a cheek,
The dyer dyed shyness in it.

5. My golden cheek flows easily the drops
That dripped from melting his cheek like alchemy.

6. Moon-like, if my glances shone in it
The glances stained it like its planets blood.

7. I made the curled curl hang down
The disheveled from it in the morning evening.

8. Early playfulness, a chance from a loved one
Who returned, passionate love struck him like winds.

9. The birds chanted and the cups revolved around,
The autumn breeze gently blew pure air.

10. Fill the cup lest you miss comfort
And give me comfort, your rosy cheek.

11. And pass it from the cheeks, hot
For it is the fire, though called water.

12. Daughter of Bastam, in whom the son of Chosroes rose up
Breaking the eyelid of his eye out of hatred.

13. And a boon companion I conversed with in the darkness of night
As if I conversed with the brightest star.

14. Meeting the night challenging darkness
I met it cleverly like a skillful warrior.

15. And the dawn shone in the darkness of a cheek
The horizon glittered with rays clearly.

16. Speech becomes confused by the blending of pronunciation
Mumbling and murmuring it threw away papers.

17. Like the tones of a bell or the groans of
A complainer when he herds sheep.

18. The glance stripped bare, shining,
And the charm bent, gentle, brown.

19. Making the canal soft and level,
Making the plateau hard and bent.

20. Standing upright, proportionate,
A stance in which my crooked ribs bowed.

21. Salvation, salvation from drawing the sword of
Victory, if drawn, is salvation, salvation.

22. And annihilation, annihilation from shaking the spear of
Stabbing, if shaken, is annihilation, annihilation.

23. Wearing the robe of beauty, a cloak
Competing with the robe of beauty, a gown.

24. It would not be novel if I lived happily in it
It is not strange for youth to die of bliss.
