1. Love called you, so answer the one who called you
Trace your youth in your youth

2. And leave those who call for passion besides you
And believe them and blame those who prevent you

3. And die with passion for the one whose love enthralled you
May you attain his satisfaction, may you

4. So O a glance that cheaperened the market of passion
To bargain its preciousness with your weeping

5. And why do you complain of wakefulness and sleeplessness
Do you deny what your hands have done

6. And O a heart that longs for the one you desire
While you are with him so how did he abandon you

7. And O an illness why did you leave my body
I think you did not find rest in it

8. And O a king in the unique qualities
I adjure you by justice towards your chosen one

9. The decree has passed with my misery upon you
So do not let estrangement be your decree

10. Your love cured what you see of my bones
So O full moon, glory to the One who cured you

11. I ransom you with souls, and who has a soul for me
If people are stingy, may it ransom you

12. But my body is captive to illness
And ask about my heart and inner self, it is your love

13. And ask if the fallen prisoner of passion came to you
For the news has reached you

14. I am that slave, so favor me by your meeting
Prolonged in you are the hopes

15. And from illness I attained more than wishes
So what is the fault of a slave who loved you

16. And disobeyed those who censured you
Do you turn away from one who turned lovingly

17. To you and turn away from other than you
And disacknowledge a familiarity that does not

18. Escape you even if hidden from others
I see you and understand from you shyness

19. So I bow my head lest I see you
And I turn away from you lest it be said

20. So-and-so has an agenda in loving you
And my passion is great but my soul

21. Prices every great thing by your approval
