1. The eloquent twitter of your wing
Calls to you with every breeze

2. It came eagerly to a generous one
Shaken by the ecstasy of praise

3. And seldom does frequenting prove false
The morning called to your face

4. Can the downpour of dew fall
Except on your flowing Nile

5. Your superiority among the virtuous is so evident
Like the superiority of the sublime over the vile

6. Whoever compared any of them to you
Compared the frail to the hale

7. O cure of innocence, my sickness
Can only be complained of to the Healer

8. How I have suffered from people
Complaining to them the moans of the wounded

9. So be safe, may the nights never cease
Below the span of your ample life

10. And say yes when an opportunity arises kindly
Adding a fragrant breath to the belabored sigh
