1. My Master, you delay tomorrow and tomorrow
And I see tomorrow never ending

2. You revived me with promise, O my hope
And you delayed me until like death you made me

3. Do not forget your promise to me, so fulfill it
For the generous one fulfills when he promises

4. What is with me, I see every eye
When it looks upon you, envious it becomes

5. Do not appear while the sun is rising
Do not claim it for yourself as a son

6. My heart's whims in its ways
Make hearts ways rugged

7. You left me no patience, and your eyes left
For no lover, ever, patience

8. My Master, O Harun visit Daneef
For if you do not visit him today, tomorrow he dies
