1. You greeted, so you revived the passion of the longing one
After what he felt of yearning

2. You approached, so how fragrant is the breeze with its scent
You rang, so how soothing is the blinking of the eyes

3. And you tended to a body worn by grief
At times, and a soul that bid farewell

4. And the youth who did not fear in
Loving the sailor, the struggles of the lovers

5. After the hands of passion toyed with him
And time burdened him with exhaustion

6. I did not forget your visit after the army
Of separation crept in the darkness with the army of reunion

7. You visited so my dwelling became in your arrival
Like the brilliance of my best days, magnificent with yearning

8. Firm, noble, lofty in status
Sweet, refined in manners

9. The schools bloom since you undertook them
Good tidings of knowledge with the breadth of scope

10. I pitched for you a lofty canopy
And a beautiful porch extended from it for you

11. So be delighted, O Lord of knowledge, and propose
What you will, and every subtlety thrives
