1. O you of excellence and perfection, O delight of loyalty's eye and affection's eye,
By Him who adorned and distinguished you with knowledge, patience, guidance, and integrity,

2. Do me justice from your kindness, for separation has surely left me wandering without heart,
And keep my old pact, for I keep your pact despite the distance,

3. When souls are brought close by harmony, then separation of bodies is slight to me.
