1. My heart is possessed by the beauties
Who are my malady and misery

2. My soul went out to them
With longing remaining in my heart

3. And indeed I said to a messenger
"My comfort is in pretty girls"

4. Indeed my heart became enamored
With a cow amid other cows

5. Like the love for Abadah among them
The jewel of the jewels

6. Her love made my night long
And with her my worries lengthened

7.
She increased my misdeeds in closeness

8. And my chastity from afar
What made you favor me except

9. A glance amid glances
I held back my soul from her

10. After it was inclined to her
And the words of the speaker enticed Abadah

11. Announcing the falling of teardrops on her
Ask about Abadah, for I have

12. Poured into her my tears
And indeed I am certain that I

13. Will not obey the blamers
She made me fall for her while repenting

14. Among three penitents
With swaying like a shaking spear

15. And straight posture atop all statures
With cheeks like the rising sun

16. Beaming from veils
And eyes of a cow among

17. Cows or small cows
And a neck as a meadow

18. Grazing the finest plants
And a taste, diverse and cool

19. With sweet saliva
Its taste is from melting honey

20. Aged with Euphrates water
The neighbors describe from it

21. The scent of musk particles
My advice to her is gently

22. For I am tired of advisers
I will never obey people regarding her

23. Until death comes upon me
She is my sickness and my cure

24. If she comes close to me
The wish of my soul, my care

25. In my rest and nights
My bliss when I sleep

26. And cure for my vigils
The one I spend my evenings and mornings with

27. In night and morning
My mind goes out to her

28. Announcing in sighs
So when I stand to pray

29. She comes to my mind in my prayer
I wish I had given her

30. A night of my good deeds
It's as if I'm crying for her love

31. With weeping and fasting
So heal me, O Responder to prayers

32. With patience from her
Or make her taste from me one day

33. The anguish of my anguish
Her love brought me higher

34. Than what my chastity pleased
Friend, I entrust you with my will

35. So keep my behests
Tell Abadah to return to me

36. Some of my sorrow and pain
Abadah, you have become my life

37. So join me, O my life

38. Close for me with a visit
The door of my sickness and pain

39. And when I die, then weep for me
Kindly among the weeping women

40. Be not like another
Who shuns my love

41. For I have purified for you poetry
Despite the envious women
