1. Have you intended to innovate from the family of Layla during the night
And have you loosened the noose over one who loves to annoy

2. And the hidden thoughts of an uneasy heart appeared through her
And for her I changed longing and recollection

3. So my tears overflowed as torrents of love
Either here or there, downwards

4. As the necklace freely gave away
Its descending small pearls

5. I scolded the youth a little
And my grief returned to me and became constant

6. So in the morning I was not able
To forbid the singer from my love and repel him

7. And your brother whom you know
When our nights dissolve obscurity

8. After youth has changed to wisdom
And old age made him satisfied with the veil

9. Old age burdened him with its weights
And it did not blame him except for embarrassment

10. So you may see me sometimes on a musical instrument
Having lost my youth and neglected commercialism

11. I let out the hidden singer from her tent
And circulate the wine

12. And the owner of a gurgling voice like that of partridges
Whose early song I innovated

13. I went to her before dawn
Either saying or desiring

14. The playing of hands awakens the sleepy one
And loosens the cloak

15. Before the rooster crowed I filled its cup for it
Then it went around

16. When the bright flowers falls among the drinkers
They toss it around, fresh or withered

17. And I forgot the passion of an amorously inclined one
Through a flirtatious one who mocks the veils

18. Five remaining eggs resemble
Falcons, he imprisoned them with a strap

19. Then they returned to them and were secretive with them
And cooperated in work and partnership

20. This one prepares a nest for them
And that one gathers green plants between them

21. It was their secrecy that pleases the eyes
And fulfils journeys

22. Yet my soul and my daybreak wandering remained
Among those with short shoes

23. And panels of confusion as if
The chisel had composed poems on the inkstand

24. And an opinion that disputes with the vertebrae
Whose joints the flood did not wash away

25. So do not complain to me of desolation
And long journeys, and make it your patience

26. The soul wanders at dusk and dawn
Till you meet the good ones

27. You will meet Qais and his supporters
Who ignite the flames of war, flames upon flames

28. I say to her when the journey was difficult
You left a Lord and you left a neighbour

29. So who can convey (the message) to our people Malik
I mean by that Bakr the brave

30. With you is your Lord so ally with Him
When an authority suppresses a people, suppressing

31. God has granted you grace through it
When people share a great matter among themselves

32. Through it you have honour
And He centred His kingdom among you and consulted

33. The one who is hoped for is His bounty
When we make a choice regarding it

34. The brother of war when the resin sparked a flame
Pecking stars for the highest (point)

35. And replacing the fetters on a dusty day a bracelet
Thus you weakened a people and made them live long

36. And destroyed the homes of another people
God's grant, for God hears the hidden secrets

37. So He fulfils the concealed wishes
O maid of them who tightens

38. The cloth on herself as a waist-wrapper
Who fastens the charm and refuses sleep

39. Except by day
You have possessed her and embraced her a night

40. When she leaned and called to the left
So do not think me for you a disbeliever

41. Nor think I want separation
For by your life if you do not come

42. The plow will be uneasy without waiting
Like an estranged camel amid the enclosures

43. Fearing harm and wanting to join her clan
And a day when women's blood flows

44. You made your gown in it a headcover
So what a night I had in Laila's

45. Like an estranged camel fearing capture
Then when the distant star came to us

46. We prostrated to it and raised buildings
That is the time for piety and purity

47. And that is a time of difficult rule
To a king, the best of its lords

48. And everything certainly has a time
To the bearer of burdens from his people

49. When fate brings great sorrows
One whose neighbours are not startled

50. Whose tolerance is not seen to be borrowed
One whose promise is not lost

51. So he makes it between a bleary eye
Not a wind blew it from the south

52. Watering the crops and raising the homes
Tipping the ships to their sides

53. And felling logs and large trees
When its captain fears the wave

54. Lowering fortresses and loosening restraints
With better than it with the redness of pores

55. The tattoo was dyed with them with redness
He is the Giver of the chosen hundred

56. Either childbirth or a tithe
And each tall one as if the sword

57. When the leather hid the belts
With it the thousand were mixed when

58. They were sent at the morning light when the resting place roared
And Ma'rib over a temple

59. He built and crucified therein and became enclosed
He rests from the prayers of the King

60. A period bowing and a period showing humility
With greater piety in reckoning

61. When the gusts shake the dust
Your flints are better than the flints of kings

62. Mixed with them is igniting white stone
So if they strike they will find with it

63. Their flints like unhewn pebbles
And if you threw at night attacking

64. A pebble at a rock, you would kindle a fire
So I am not who I am or my pretentiousness

65. After old age, that is sufficient disgrace
And poetry tied me in its house

66. As captives were tied the donkeys
When the ground hid your standards from you

67. The lightening stopped striking them
With a greater one in piety at reckoning

68. When the light winds shook the dust
Your kindling is better than the kindling of kings
