1. The dweller of spacious meadows set forth with yearning
To kiss the palms of my Master who singled me out with determination

2. And you came while yearning moved towards its goal
And in my conviction, I will meet a brother of noble traits

3. So I wandered like a 'nun' in an ocean that has swelling waves
That shook out from my chest concealed agonies

4. And if the day is blessed with ease and comfort
A star whose light fades when I say: O star! Does not last

5. By God! If I had the means to reunite
I would not have been with cracked palms and feet

6. Keep steady the hands of the driver of sighs, what
His hands sketched as provisions for the army's march

7. The nights of pining cried out with ecstasy while he
In my weakness concealed its flames, oh what a concealer!

8. My Master, for me from the vast plain of pardon its ample part
And the best reprimand is that built on hope

9. I tied myself to bewilderment without reason
While my habit was of lasting grace and generosity

10. I was surprised when the Master was spurned by his follower
And coldness was openly declared to one considered close

11. Are you bringing the vessel of loyalty or consent, so you quench
The thirsty, while your sweet water is for all people

12. He seeks your truthful shore, yet you deprive him
While your sweet water heals the body of sickness

13. Come! Your servant's audacity has surpassed
Acceptance, and his measures have increased in knowledge

14. Has it not been said: the best of people are those who pardon
And the best of manners are to forgive faults

15. Your word remains ever just and upright
And never ceases to guide rightly with wisdom

16. And this is praise walking with awe
And gesture suffices over speech

17. For it, though afflicted with an eye disease that spread its pain to the eyelids
When people complain of sick eyes

18. I refused to complain of the pain of eyelids
I refused like an overwhelmed lover, an affliction and love

19. I call out from my eyelids, from my eyelids
But no eyelid obeys me, so cry

20. Nor is there patience with which I can remove my anguish
