1. On the street of heroes we met by chance
Without prior planning or appointed time

2. It was our first meeting in that moment
I found in her my wish and desire

3. A maiden in the prime of beautiful youth
Who captivated my heart with a glance of her eyes

4. I greeted her with best wishes, and she responded
Welcome, by God, daughter of my country

5. She said, I see you recognized me, so mention me
By name. I said yes, by the letter 'd'

6. O my wish, I live passionately loving you
For so long, so don't be surprised by my affection

7. She said, I want you to record for me some
Poetry you choose for me yourself to recite

8. So I responded, my poetry and what my hands possess
Is your possession, and I am at your service

9. And I asked her permission to recite for her
A poem expressing the passion of my heart

10. She said, do you really need permission? For
I am all ears for the poet's chanting
