1. My soul is ransomed for the one I reproached, so he wept
Oh, his beauty! Whether he wept one day or laughed

2. I used to show him patience, but when he wept
So his laughter became entwined in it

3. He cries and laughs sometimes, so he kills me
With weeping and laughter, they both conspired in killing me

4. I called him to wreak havoc on me, O my friend, but I have not
Seen a gazelle before him pounce so

5. A gazelle escaped from my hunt and made me
Fall into his hunt, indeed his eyes have trapped me
