1. I said to her, "Do not be excessive.
Take my heart or abandon it.

2. Your love never left me
In my travels or home.

3. If only I knew what it was
That she had. She said to me, "be patient."

4. I said "Give it to me then!"
She said "Yes, at dawn."

5. I spent my night
Delighted at the sight.

6. A smooth, large pearl
In the beauty of emerald's face.

7. My eyes never saw its equal,
Except the pearl of Umm Al-Buhturi.
