1. I offer myself for your sake, I did not ask
For that garment for shrouding

2. I asked for it to wear
While my soul remains in the body

3. And wearing it was prolonged
And I feared the vicissitudes of time

4. So what is your opinion on keeping it
O kindest of the generous

5. And do not make it into unraveled yarn
Loosen its weaving to Aden

6. Rather make it conforming
To the beauty of your handsome face

7. Delicate like your intuition which
Was keen beyond the keen

8. Pure white like your opinion if
It and wisdom are in one sheath

9. Spotless like your honor if
Your honor is without blemish

10. And do not think you lose it
Gratitude is enough price

11. And it suffices if you begrudge it
That you miss gratitude and profit
