Many a night I spent in a garden in Lawwān.
How many nights have I spent in a garden of colors,
The carpets within it are colorful, and love is a colorist.
The carpet is colorful and love has many hues.

And God is my guardian, warding off death, a steadfast protector.
By God, I have a protector who wards off harm and distress.
And my passion's fire-striker struck sparks; my heart is its flint.
The fire of my love has ignited my heart, making it a shining goblet.
