1. Our love is the noblest and most sublime
Beyond the reproaches of suitors

2. And I was not consoled when misfortunes pained me
Your afflictions in adversity are my afflictions

3. O radiant brother, many a brother has been exposed
To reproach, though close kin

4. I love you for the most noble qualities
And for the intimate fragrance, not vulgar desires

5. And when misfortunes challenge you
The sun's brilliance mocks the clouds

6. My soul yearns for you in absence
With a rose's yearning for raindrops

7. And your love is the blessing of life and the sweetest
Sweeter to me than your charming glances
