1. A long night and short eyelids
Whether we meet or meet in the homelands

2. Our neighbors in the caves have returned indeed
You were good neighbors to us in the caves

3. You have shed tears that bleed
Into my cheeks and the light in my heart is fire

4. O passer, if the companion of the travel saw
What has befallen me from the agony of separation, he would pass

5. A heart throbbing for its loved ones
And an eyelid flowing copious tears

6. No, by Him who will reunite me with them
I was not pleased when they departed

7. I say to the cupbearer jokingly, pass
Goblets of wine to my regrets

8. In a garden, where its birds twitter
Over its ripened fruits and blossoms

9. Inarticulate, if I shine whenever it sings
I would give away in every jest, a jest
