1. Who will judge between me and my blamer
My passion is my passion, my anguish my anguish

2. Be brief, for passion’s faith is not blasphemy
Nor do I heed your blame more than revelation

3. Strange are the people whose minds
Were neither for passion nor bodies for emaciation

4. The subtleties of love eluded their minds
So they interpreted it in the ugliest way

5. In which limb can I protect my tormentor
That was spared torment and oppression?

6. If I say “in my eyes”, then there are my tears
If I say “in my heart”, then there is my agony

7. Rather, I made my ears his dwelling
And shielded him from the blame of every blamer

8. And three gray hairs descended on my forehead
So I knew their descent meant my departure

9. They appeared three with the descent of three
Difficulties, an observer’s face, and burdens

10. So they sequestered me from my youth, and if
I am humbled, I have heard the humiliation of the blamed

11. If I have bid farewell to pleasures
And signs of blame appeared on my head

12. I have been satiated, and the dawn in its saddlebags
Brings eyes that see it with a sickly face

13. Of the darkest Hyacinth, sprouting
In its prime and in its withering

14. Immersed in the qualities of the excellent Zaid
And singer and miserable one

15. Adorned by the bejeweling of the bridle as a
King adorned with crown and turban

16. Turning the smooth rod which souls
Incline to him, every leaning one

17. He rises and descends in neighing as if
He is soloing a melody for every neigh

18. So it is as if the entertainments in his mouth
Were mobilized for you in light and heavy rhythms

19. Eggs were tied for us, then they were only attained
By the eye of the imagination and picturing

20. A wind but no lightning flashes in its trail
Nor does it prolong it with extension

21. So the observer has from an absent lover
Or arrogant to the submissive one

22. As if the calamities were unleashed to a resolute one
Before the stallions with his bound forehead

23. Until we hunted the beasts and did not leave
Anything but traces and hills

24. It stood its legs for us with our food
New, and proper conduct with handkerchief

25. And shackled, it had not committed a crime
Nor did its clouds confess without concentration

26. Clad in armor except its breastplate
Its range stitches upon it other than long

27. So it is as if Bilquis approached it when
She entered the pavilion raising the train of her gown

28. Glancing as the frightened one glances
Dividing its gaze in rounds after rounds

29. Until when the flock turned away for a glance
He gestured with his forelegs: let me go

30. And the safeguarding of the tongue ended, but my palm
Did not reach the gazelle with kohl-lined eyes

31. I unleashed it after them as if they
Had disobeyed me and it was my messenger

32. Its group fled so it pursued behind it
As if it were a hero behind the caravan

33. It hurried and overtook it, connected in its trail
Surely connection is a binding for every hurrier

34. So its snout finished off seventy vicious ones
It is the crux of expression in the example

35. Until when it carried the clouds with its neck
The saddled could not carry it

36. And I went out early with a short spear
Souls inclining to it not insignificant

37. And sometimes it smelled the ground with its nose
At times, so it took the position of a guide for me

38. Seeking its requests, so it is as if
In the noon heat seeking its shade for a nap

39. Behind them, epic battles occurred that
History relates between clouds and carried things

40. As if they are a sudden attack of horses
Warring to horses with the flames of horses

41. Their poles stood for it with drums
In their war and lightning in onslaughts

42. The soldiers of the locality retreated then took refuge
In the heart of every blameworthy coward

43. The clouds cried over the meadows, so it adorned
It with sprouts from the tears of concentrated ones

44. So it is as if it and the rising dawn above it
Are a cloak woven with detached pearls

45. It overcame the sun of day, so it clothed
Its brilliance in clothes of mottled cloth

46. So I alighted in the meadows’ furnishings, and none
Like me deserved it without alighting

47. One wearing a turban stole between us
Its conversations silenced a shackled hand

48. So I placed my mouth in its mouth, what a lover
Enchanted by the glimmer of his sweet one does

49. The doves sang for us with it
A melody, so it mingled features with integration

50. A garden tended by the clouds as if
It had a covenant from the era of Ishmael

51. Compare it to the bedouins, you will know
It is worthier than the bedouins in preferability

52. Their tribes possessed languages collected
Among them, and it possessed the languages of every tribe

53. So the East is empty after it, as if
Destruction had descended upon its inhabited region

54. With its absence and the death of its elders
From them, and they did not attain a substitute

55. Since it came to them while they were
In the night of their worries from it, so they became connected in darkness

56. It is as if it were a sun that rose in our west
And was estranged in their east by disappearance

57. My master, this is my praise, I have not
Said falsely nor presented with prolongation

58. Whoever hopes to attain, I am a man
Who did not expect other than nearness in my hoping
