1. O you who excessively indulge in vain amusement,
And are carried away by self-conceit,

2. Why do you not show modesty and give charity,
With some of what you earn?

3. What good is wealth to you if it is said,
"He is very rich but lacks manners"?

4. You made me feel your coldness,
Yet I heard no reproach.

5. O most just of people, why
Did you not tell me my sin?

6. I have no sin against you
Except my loyalty and love.

7. I remain true to my vow
Whether you stay close or go far.

8. For most women we see,
The best veil is to leave off the veil.

9. The beautiful woman may have an excuse to be veiled,
But what excuse has another to be veiled?

10. Blessed is the birth of one whose mother
Was of the essence of dew when she gave birth.

11. His smile is one of truthfulness,
Through him a star is made complete.

12. And his life, throughout its history,
Enjoys a gentle, sweet living.
