1. She asked, "Why is your gaze in the sky?
Do you have something there that resembles my appearance?"

2. I said, "It has the full moon, and your beauty adorns it,
So suffice yourself with fearing God in half of my passion."

3. My words bid her farewell, and passion stirred her,
She leaned on my chest, wiping away my tears.

4. I said, "Leave me be where I was, for I
See the pulses of my heart divulging my agony."

5. She said, "I ransom you my soul, O best of those loved,
And best of lovers, and my love is my end."

6. "Grasp the eyelids of love in passion,
And do not be like those bored of my separation."

7. "For you are in my heart a rescue for one drowning,
So be mine even before the day I pass."

8. "You see in life water for my thirst,
And you are to my soul like bliss and my garden."
