1. Woe to a soul adorned
With fluttering eyelids

2. Whose beauty slays
A sin yet forgiveness

3. What eye upon the fawn
Is not lined with kohl?

4. All kohl but longing
Leaves bitterness in her lids

5. She is beauty embodied
And tipsiness sobered

6. If you saw his face
You'd say, would that I hadn't

7. He ensnares hearts with love
With enchained spirits

8. A mocking heart to hearts
That to him are enslaved

9. With a feminine charm
And masculine airs

10. In him a hermaphrodite
Though manliness often appears

11. At home a coddled pearl
In the market, a bold lion

12. My teary glances to his face
Are scattered pearls

13. The eye has tasted in his bend
Sweetness and bitterness

14. The dimple his moles
The blush his embers

15. His cheek a garden
With blooming flowers

16. So soft as if
The kiss of evil was fated

17. His cheek a pendant
Where my heart is chained

18. Vexing me over his cheek
Premature hairs

19. Come before their time
For fated matters

20. The sheen of his cheek reveals
It bears a panther

21. Blame not his love for faults
If he is corrupt

22. Nor rebuke him, becoming
A inhibiter of sin

23. For sins come from humans
And forgiveness from the Divine
