1. Rise above your minaret, O full moon
And build us, O moon, your abode

2. Arrange the things into constellations
And He has made you encompass them

3. And He has made you a light
That illuminated the sky of my heart

4. Just as you have become a garden
Whose fruits we reap happily

5. O you with perfect beauty, you who
In his creation has no partner

6. So remove your veil O face
With splendor and lift your veil

7. And be gentle with a lover
My beloved, and come to my aid

8. And be delicate in drawing near
It is permitted that you visit my tomb

9. O gazelle, with shyness
Ah, how lovely is your running away

10. And bring us a cup of intimacy
And give us to drink your pure wine

11. You are the pole of beauty, so
The heart revolves around you as its orbit

12. In my state of passion
I have not ceased to tend to your herd

13. I wonder, are you like me
Tending, O beloved neighbor, to your herd
