1. When will I be informed of your affection, O you
To whom I gave my soul, but you did not accept

2. It should suffice you that you burdened my heart with
What other people's hearts could not endure

3. You abandoned me after intimacy you used to give
Oh my, who has tasted abandonment after being brought together

4. O people of Najd, I called upon you
While the separation has blocked the ways between us

5. Grant me your pleasure, o lover of your love
Content with your passion whether you are kind or harsh

6. Greet an outlander, estranged, disconnected
Yearning guides towards the loved ones, connected

7. O you who changed after them
While we did not take anyone in replacement of their love

8. Jesus wandered the horizons, while your love
Did not budge between my inner feelings, nor moved

9. I went away from you while my heart is in your dwellings
I wonder, as the estrangement grew long, what did it do

10. It suffices me in this estrangement that I did not wrong you
It would not have been who is far from his loved ones erred

11. I did not mention patience and solace after you
Nor did you forget indifference and boredom

12. Even the birds of your dwellings' vicinity
Got lost to us, and even your specter was scarce

13. Revive a soul that perished in your love
And heal a body that your longing emaciated

14. Send regards to revive the dead of your estrangement
Or a light breeze that heals ailments

15. I wish the morning breeze told of my agony so that
The resident may know what the roamer faces of woes
