1. Tears flow from my eyes like a spring,
Igniting embers in the darkness like fire.

2. I see you, O son of Abi Warha, blaming me
Where I have found no fault that merits blame.

3. It unfastens a knot in the heart of the love-smitten one,
A heart adorned when its fasteners are unloosed.

4. I smell the fragrant breeze from his Najd opposite me,
A breeze from Ghor that has embraced a cave other than mine.
