1. Answer if your body has called you, if you do not know
Verily, my brothers have made lawful my sanctuary and den

2. And I did not doubt what was in my heart from what I see in it
Of longing, until it almost came out of my chest

3. When a sigh was stuffed in my heart with sadness
I sent it from my eyelashes as tears that flow

4. And can the grieved do anything but accept?
It is enough that I long for him since I have uncovered my veil for him

5. I refused as if the night said to its star
Stay, do not answer the caller of dawn or travel

6. And new grief and longing have become burdensome in the morning
And I do not account for afflictions except from separation
