1. Oh idol of Al-Azd
Whom they call their lord

2. You were given fresh water to drink from the valley
And if you did not give me fresh water to drink

3. You see me distressed because of you
And you do not relieve my distress

4. Oh why don't you provide me
Solace of heart or nearness

5. For yearning calls me
And I am dying of love

6. Whenever my eye remembers you
It cannot control its tears

7. As if I am afflicted because of you
And you have not caused me any remedy

8. But your love inside me
Has crept into my entrails

9. Did you see my body melting
With passion that poured sorrow abundantly over me

10. And if I sinned, forgive me
Won't you forgive my sin?

11. You left my heart dead
And nothing of it remains for me

12. I spent the night sorrowful
And rose up confused in the morning

13. Like one possessed with no sense
Whether he blames or curses

14. And the child of love weakened me
So woe to me if he grows up

15. For I have no heart
Even if you see a heart

16. Thus we spend our evenings without
Peace or war between us

17. So talk to me, of what I pray to you
All night long with bent stature

18. Will you quench me from thirst
Or make me drink bitterness?

19. For death is sweet
For whom you make drink from barrenness

20. It obeys the kiss of Al-Azd
And if not for you, it would not have obeyed
