1. My heart adores you, bringing joyful tidings
And reviving it with refined manners and etiquette

2. You reveal wonders, marvel of your time
So your sweet garden thrives, scented blissfully

3. I have laid down in my heart an attachment
Though long ago it was confused, now lucid and clear

4. Whenever the age gestures towards excellence
It is you I mean by that gesture, you alone

5. No gift delights me more than seeing you
What gift in life compares to beholding your face?

6. And following my gift are your replies which
My tongue, though eloquent, struggles to praise enough
