1. The melody of a beautiful beloved, when heard
Her diverse tones awakened my anxiety

2. As if the nectar of her lips to her mouth
Was a blossoming cup of pure silver

3. As if her two eyes were of ruby
When clear in water, to the blue inclined

4. As if his saddle on a fallow mare
Or a gray steed fearing flashing lightning

5. As if he was carried on good manners
Neither overtaking a leg nor a neck
