1. Nothing is better than two lovers who have divided
The beauty of caring and sincerity between them

2. They shared beauty and benevolence so they blended
In passions, thus becoming a symbol for desire

3. As if a pen had shaped both of their forms
Rather, it was God's kindness, not a pen

4. You see amiability and refinement between them
Gardens and meadows where wisdom grows

5. They were given of the arts of beauty what they wished for
And they were appointed the judges of fate's twists and turns

6. And when one is safe, the other rejoices with elation
For knowing their beloved is unharmed

7. If they were to move, their form would scatter, and if they spoke
Scattering pearls, prose and verse, and whatever was composed

8. Preserving from fault has become suspicious to the eye of fault
So you will never see either of them accused of a fault

9. They suckled faithfulness, their life together
Even if weaned, they would have died and not been weaned

10. It's as if their two souls are one soul, so you see
Their love and passion as one in all they fancied

11. And one does not dream a dream while sleeping
Unless the other dreamed that very same dream

12. Marvel at two lovers, even if one were tortured with fire
And the other reveling in Paradise and its bounty

13. This one would delight in the delight of the other
And this one would anguish in that same anguish

14. A beautiful concordance manifesting beyond the unseen between them
In every state, you see time harmonized

15. If one fell ill, he would be devastated
Knowing their beloved has fallen sick

16. Such is the affection of the loyal, thus
Hearts become pure, illuminating their darkness

17. I wish two lovers, even if tempted by sin
Would never reach the regret of confusion

18. They resembled in loyalty so they became intimate
While betrayal and deceit from this one and that one vanished

19. They extracted the intimacies of companionship between them
Pure, so even if they saw their own shadows, they'd be shy

20. If left alone for eternity, engrossed
In amorousness, they wouldn't be bored or bothered

21. Nor did they want isolation their whole lives
As if they drank from the other and found the taste pleasant

22. This one delights in the other's complains and lets him know
And in their mutual delight, they confirm what was known

23. Each one has a sanctuary in safeguarding their companion
And no protected place would befriend a sanctuary

24. So all they did before fortifying themselves
With affection, they have cleansed since fortifying

25. Like pre-Islamic ignorance cleansed by Islam
Its sins washed away and Islam negated what was sinned

26. Passion became a religion that protected them
From misdeeds, neither blamed nor accused

27. Indeed, if lovers remain confident
They enjoy life, and the world caters to them

28. Each one's innermost thoughts are revealed to their companion
Through all they expressed after what they concealed

29. For lovers, in the purity of passion, there are blessings
If they give thanks, they increase in blessings

30. Oh Lord, passion can hardly be endured
Except by the noble, so increase lovers in nobility
