1. In brief, I understood from him
Little, and much from gesture

2. He took hold of my arm and I sought company
He said, "Hush, in this is boldness"

3. And made success more distant. I wished that
I reproach him, but expression overcame me

4. And when I did not find connection with him
I became lovesick and sought his abode

5. And said to him, "Does not the eyelid have a shelter?"
He said, "Seek it from the door of the minaret"

6. So I said "You have made my matter difficult"
He drew together the meem - hasten with good tidings
