1. O you who describe the youths in your poetry
You and my Lord are the best of them

2. You described fifty, singling them out
While you, you are the playful gazelle

3. Leave them be, or describing them
You and my Lord are the most beautiful

4. O cheek dimple that makes its like deficient
Though the softest flesh follows it

5. I have spoken, though the difficulty is endless
Be gentle, my love, you are impatient
