1. Longing does not cease when union draws near,
And days of separation remove the hardship of days of remoteness.

2. How much anguish is in the heart that is not
A fire whose flame is extinguished!

3. And a complaint of passion I express
At the tower of concealment.

4. My despair has almost overcome
My hope when I remember you.

5. I yearn for you with the longing of the sick
For the restoration of health.

6. And I love you with the love of souls
For what you give hope of survival.

7. The servant greets and prays
For the magnificent master of majesty and loftiness.
