1. I confess to you that I am bound by the fetters of love,
Is there any savior from a tyrannical attacker or stabber?

2. The charms of a gazelle have revealed my secrets,
Its languishing glances alternate with those of a fortune-teller.

3. The army of love invaded me and deemed me fair game,
Even if I were from the family of Mazin my heart would still be thus enslaved.

4. Among the most wondrous things is a charming seducer
Infatuation has bent him, seduced by the charms of a seducer.

5. A fawn, when he desires a fawn, and a young branch
Of humanity, whose heart is twisted by a supple branch.

6. He whom love has caused to alternate
And bound as beauties themselves are bound.

7. If lovers had an arbiter in love
The spiteful would not have mastered him therein.
