1. This sun rose with the constellation
And revived the present era

2. Its beauty manifested in perfection
So pour me my cups and fill them up for me

3. And let it flow like molten gold
Cast in a luminous mold

4. Adorned with strands of passion
Wearing the garb of the neglected

5. A jewel in the blossoming flame
Destined by fate to be the same

6. So pour it for me and leave those who blamed
And woe to my state is the unjust’s acclaim

7. In fervent love and unique beauty
Ever frolicsome and free

8. The quintessence of intimacy in the wine’s delight
And the affection of the gentle companion

9. So pour for me my friend and drink to
The love of this gentle, devoted one

10. The new moon of darkness brought the constellation to its height
My desire, its ultimate end in sight

11. Oh would that the kingdom of beauty be just
To one whose passion is drastic

12. Never has he tasted the fruits of union
Ever despairing night and day

13. O most noble heart, can there be
A way to meet with thee?

14. And reason in me has withered so
Is there any tenderness for my woe?

15. You heed not a spurned lover
Grazing beneath the veil of darkness

16. The enamored one, wounded at heart
With tears flowing free, not bound nor charted

17. He refused what ruined him of misfortunes
To show his misery and misfortune

18. Who can help the stricken lover?
Would that he had never been

19. With desire for the love of a beautiful gazelle
That left him no solace as well

20. Swaying to the morning breeze in a charming glance
His beauty rose and enhanced

21. Oh that cheek on the curved stem
Like a hanging branch, a dangling gem

22. And beauty beyond all earthly dream
Majestic, serene, supreme

23. So I said when he shunned me and transgressed
Turning from me, keeping his distance

24. O my happiness has surely shone
Can I hope to see you again?

25. He bent away from me laughing and reciting
Oh what gentle beauty exciting

26. How strange you wish my love to be easy
When I am the lofty falcon, mighty and fiery

27. My spear is erect with perfect poise
To pierce every indifferent heart with its point
