1. I seek patience's aid, though it's defeated in you,
And ask sleep about you, though it's deprived.

2. And with you I seek a generous heart,
How can something return when it's gifted?

3. I didn't know your worth until you left,
Parting disciplines, though some separation hurts.

4. In your verses, I entrust God with a moon,
My eyes see it in longing, and it's loved.

5. I accept and get angry at its fickleness,
All a beloved does is loved.

6. As for the slanderer, he returns fruitless,
Does a requester get answered when sacrifice is required?

7. If he were fair, he'd say: "Wait for a connection
Tomorrow," but awaiting something is torment.

8. In love there's bliss and a turning point,
As in it there's rebuke and scolding.

9. O ladies who hate gray hair as it
Matches their cheeks with its hue.

10. You refuse whiteness and refuse I blacken it,
Both colors are unsightly.

11. You don't deny today what sprouted gray,
Though yesterday you refused it when dyed.

12. If only desire protected my heart from its greed,
The coveted is never brought near.

13. I'm ascetic yet earth covers vegetation,
Clouds pour rain and spring flows.

14. I don't covet, though its seeker is disappointed,
Sustenance is earned, that's known.

15. The fruit of greed is a bitter extract,
Not masked by perfume's scent.

16. Purify your morals from the vice that shames you,
And comply alone, for no one's accompanied.

17. I'm tired of needy friends,
Water turns salty though potable.

18. How often fate promises my dreams and breaks them,
I feel happy with a brother, yet fate limps.

19. I seek to reach Al-Saji, though in vain,
Can the celestial sign of Gemini bring me closer?

20. May every departed soul reach Muhammad Al-Munsi,
Seeking him, though his visit's calculated.

21. A state dreams speak of ignorantly
As attainable, yet dreams are untrue.

22. If fortune advances the misguided,
Or intentions draw them near.

23. The sword proves cutting while sheathed,
The gaze honors by nature, though weak.

24. Beware a newly acquired gift
Through a mediator's plea.

25. Ask where the villain got his power,
The despicable person rises by evil means.

26. You, only you in life, Abu Hasan,
You speak truly, life is wondrous.

27. When you see the she-wolves unafraid,
No wolf dares attack them.

28. O you who clothe me in prestige when
My gowns shrink from me.

29. I hold to a promise from you that's unbroken,
Its pledge not forgotten, its rope not severed.

30. My trials have praised you, after probing
The souls of men, learned through experience.

31. May every departing woman reward you,
From her abundant, cascading words.

32. When I mark her life with your name, she melts,
The peeks obey you, calamities submit.

33. So make peace with them, and leave me to circulate,
Going around seven times, crying at the veil.

34. You're hoped for and feared, so leave the door ajar,
The generous is hoped for and feared.
