1. O you whose scent is fragrant, though from burning embers,
Anxiety endures, every stubborn malady fails.

2. The torrents have failed, we never knew them to cease,
Since the torrents of al-Fayshil ceased to flow.

3. And I see him in the glorious books an ascetic,
Skilled only in the book of the Introduction.

4. I kissed him and licked his mouth, a Muslim,
The kiss of a friend on the mouth of the veiled friend.

5. He approached me in that place and said:
I sacrifice myself for a passionate lover,

6. If you truly kiss me, then quench my thirst
With your tongue in my mouth from below.
