1. The beloved's kindness and the gleam of his pleasure
After he had turned away from me

2. Restored my soul after it had departed
And cleared away sorrows that had filled my heart

3. O kindnesses of the beloved, tend to
My weary heart, for it has melted and crumbled

4. O heedless ones, reap his pleasure but know not
The worth of what you reap from that pleasure

5. I know better than you, for good health
Has no value for one who's not been ill

6. How lovely is affection after aloofness
And the sweetness of joy after it passes

7. Look at the falcon plucking its feathers
Longing to soar, but too weak to take flight

8. Your custom is to mend what you break
So mend the broken one whose fate is spent

9. Let him taste your pleasure, reviving his soul
Among souls, no longer a sword drawn for war

10. Offer your pleasure in welcome, welcome!
The time of anger at us has passed and gone
