1. Take, take my heart captive of sorrows
For distance and silence stirred longing

2. O allure of the altar in my prostration
And surah of sincerity on days of trials

3. The desert of the heart of love is longing
And the wound made my soul weep

4. And the eyelid complains of the insomnia of passion
Why did it deprive it even of drowsiness?

5. After a period that separated us
Time cannot fold no matter how long

6. Shall we close the doors we opened
For safety after fear after sadness?

7. Do not worry about a critic who envies
Fall in love and whoever assumes, assumes
