1. Your nearness shortens my long night
And your union heals my ailing heart

2. And if the wind of estrangement blows from you
I lose the breeze of my miserable life

3. Just as I, if I make mistakes
And my excuse does not show a beautiful face

4. I found Abu Al-Qasim Al-Dhafir who
Is supported by Allah, a gentle master

5. When worries call him, and life
He sees them like the gait of a stingy steed

6. And his pens, like the strokes of his swords
The hissing continues to rival the clanging
