1. I disappear and forget everything but passion
And if misfortunes afflict me for the sake of the beloved

2. And the day of separation only increases ardency
So neither yearning is forgotten nor are tears exhausted

3. I yearn when my riding camel yearns and in the desert
Nightingales that riders do not heed with their cries

4. For I have a longing that makes the passionate kindred yearn
And I have an affection that makes the riding camels yearn

5. And I care more passionately for my loved ones
From a distance that does not consider relatives
