1. A gazelle from the family of Shayban has deprived
my eyes of sweet sleep at night,

2. Babylonian with burning glances and cheeks like fire,
yet her heat burned in my heart.

3. I said, when her bending side sways
like a willow branch tossing in the wind,

4. "You have stolen sleep from me." He answered,
“This is nothing new for the Kurds."
