1. I saw you as a crescent moon lighting up my horizon
So the universe made me forget when you appeared

2. My soul flew to it and fell for its secret
After the secret my resolve vanished when my determination remained

3. And there appeared to my eyes the meanings of your affairs
Subtleties of traces which were pleasant and settled

4. So here I am, the bewildered one who was dazed
For whom the universe has been in awe since those suns shone

5. Slow down, dawn of the east, and settle down, for I
Was twisted in heart when you were twisted so remain steadfast

6. By the outstanding affairs of the sky
And judgments of revelation that landed in my heart

7. When the Najdi lightning bolt flashed, my
Heart flew from yearning to the land of Medina

8. It has in the plains of Hejaz places of watering
Covered from the universe by the truthfulness of privacy

9. It tasks my patience with tranquility though
It has surrounded me while it has carried all my worries

10. So it takes me with gestures of love from those
For whom the justification of secrets was from the caravan of my concerns

11. And it returns me from everything other than passion
So my patience goes when my return is steadfast

12. O beloveds of my heart, and love has not ceased
To realize my hopes in you, O beloveds

13. By the sanctity of affection whose secret is a secret in the soul
And types of passion for you that landed in me

14. And by the burning affection from me and by the cold of what
You have spread for us of that gentle care

15. Establish for us the weight of passion with kindness
When the men of love are judged among you

16. And do not cut off from us the ropes of your affection
For the death of your lovers is in mentioning separation

17. And favor us with care, we
Are weak, oh the strong occurrences

18. And a holiday and a promise, have mercy on us and treat
Affectionately and kindly between these two
