1. O beauty, O gazelle of the valley of Al-Lawaa
Your love left no other desires in my heart

2. Do you see if I found one like the one
Who found your companionship the morning of parting

3. I stayed up herding the star whose forehead
Was set ablaze by the burning fires of longing

4. Alas for separation and its torments
If not for parting, youth would not have found solace

5. And alas for days gone by, remembering them
Spreads sadness in the heart's depths

6. In God's protection a beloved when
He was absent from my eyes, dwelled in my heart

7. With a stature like a supple branch
Above it the full moon of beauty rested

8. I ransom him above all people from one who primps
The morning star watered his eyelids

9. A full moon when unveiled, a gazelle when
He drew near, a fawn when he bent down

10. Obsessed with wandering, not to be tamed
While my mind never tired of his love

11. O moon who left his love
And from the heat of his mouth did not quench his thirst

12. A burning coal my eyes yearn for
Even if my heart contained him

13. From the sickness of your eyes is my illness and from
The fires of your cheek my heart was seared

14.
Exert yourself and ward off sleep from an eyelid

15. That never stayed up all night for another's love
Send me a phantom apparition of you
