1. Sweeter and more healing for us than the rapture of music,
And more delicious than sipping grape wine,

3. He showed us a ruby-like beauty,
And clothed her in a garment of gold.

4. He adjusted the rest of her features,
And sprinkled on her the pearls of love.

5. Her beauty is perfect, yet
She ignores sins and the lure of doubt.

6. She is entirely composed of charms,
With the magic of her tongue and the grace of literature.

7. We sported with her and delighted in her,
And together we were the reins of rapture.

8. But when he sighed from his drunkenness,
And I made him drink what he had already drunk,

9. I diffused from his diffusion a musky fragrance,
And whispered to him privately in wonder.

10. How many nights did she oblige
Our desires with the joy of intimacy!
