1. Will you not eulogize a passionate lover
Did you know what he will encounter or did you not know?

2. And if you have been free from worries in the morning
You certainly knew that I have not been safe

3. And if you obeyed the blamers, I
Have opposed the words of my blamers and faultfinders

4. And when you pass by the dwellings in the morning
Say hello, greet the dwellings of Haytham

5. A fawn smiles from a rising morn
From her mouth in the wing of a dark night

6. She dispels the darkness with a smile that dispels gloom
By my father and mother, that smile is graceful

7. How many starry nights when she appeared to us
Were like the day when she turned away from Adham

8. She concealed my love and met it with estrangement
It's all the same whether she concealed or did not conceal
