1. Her passionate soul in youth is like
Connecting lovers and love is its religion

2. She got used to the torments of passion
And found sweetness in its disgrace

3. A soul that doubles its passion and love
When hopes are delayed and sorrows multiply

4. Since Sa'ad distressed her by his aloofness
Separating them, igniting her sorrows

5. The veil drew nearer, so her cheeks shone
Like apples, and her eyelids fluttered

6. As if he made her tears into pearls
And her falling tears into pearl necklaces

7. A sun appeared in the creation of this human
Who captivated all hearts in existence

8. Our breaths nearly catch fire
From the heat of passion burning between us

9. Not all the gardens contain, in beauty
What her garden contains

10. Its apples are not like any apples in Paradise
Nor its pomegranates like any pomegranates

11. I find gloom even in union with her
So how will I be if we are long separated?

12. My heart has been blackened since
Her homelands were abandoned

13. It is as if she is a wave, so adept at flirting
And I am her tumultuous seas

14. The nights and the wilderness never
Cease flowing over her perpetually

15. Nothing remains of the ravages of ordeals
In it, neither inanimate nor living

16. And I have seen people fall short of reaching
Her lofty heights whenever tested

17. And glory raises its people to the highest
Ranks, whenever its position is assumed

18. How many a nation falls short in its pride
Of a nation whose ruler is its pillar

19. A king to whom kings show reverence
And bow over his throne mats

20. Through him the world is adorned and its light radiates
Until its horizons smile with joy

21. And his glories are exalted so high
That the extent of his greatness rivals the sky

22. His tables are set before his guests
White, garlanded with tablecloths

23. Through him the two enclosures resemble Paradise
Whose inhabitants know no sorrow

24. I have tested you, O son of Malik, after
Seeing a people whose loss was their gain

25. So I saw in you praiseworthy qualities
Whose fragrance makes the flowers bloom

26. And I set out to you from many uncertainties
With no limits to their winding paths

27. The winds subside when blowing through it
And riding beasts lean towards guidance
