1. Oh, if only my fate with you were when
I remember you, we meet readily with pleasant company

2. So you could heal the passion in me like the passion in us
With an equitable share not biased or estranged

3. Perhaps you would experience what we have for you
And one day know it fully when news reaches you

4. So you may know with certain knowledge and see
Whether I face ease or hardship in your suitors

5. She replied and turned away “You are a passionate lover
And for all people you have an excuse”

6. Suffering for whoever loves you, infatuated with passion
A brother of lustful desires that give freely the rare and plenty

7. So I said to her the words of a resilient man
Whose tears from his eyelids flowed to his neck

8. You have robbed, may God rob you, of my heart so treat it well
And return it since you have taken my moon

9. You severed my heart with trysts and wishes
And quenched my heart and bound it captive

10. No night passes people unveiled
Without me shedding copious tears wetting my chest

11. For you without any happiness rising or finding
From love any joy lighting my inner heart

12. But my heart was led at the time towards you
So I came and found no ease or patience
