1. You have ruled, so be just in passion or unjust
The sins of loved ones are forgiven in lovers

2. And your abode in my heart has been decided
Beyond the world, so stay in it or move on

3. O you who have destroyed a quarter of my patience in vain
Praise be to God, a quarter of affection remains intact

4. O you who have prolonged estrangement without cause
Does it not seem to you shortened in prolonging?

5. And denying what I face in his love
My love for you among people is well known

6. I am truthful in my passion for you, even if
Outwardly I pretend to be happy with what has transpired

7. Alas, my heart cannot be saved from its youthful folly
For it is vain in the pursuit of love

8. How much I suffer, which if its least
Had befallen Tur, Tur would have collapsed under its weight

9. And how much I see my patience folded over agony
While the fire of longing rages within my heart

10. And how much I watch the phantom of his apparition visiting me
When in fact it is but imaginary and false

11. Oh my fever! How much blood is shed in the valley of yearning
And how many a lover's heart is then imprisoned

12. And I have a king of beauty whose sharp sword
Is victorious over people's hearts, triumphant

13. A prophet of beauty, for him from his meadows and gardens
Are paradises of Eden, and from his glances, maidens
