1. My fate with you is deprivation,
And so much coldness and estrangement.

2. Where are the nights that passed while we were,
Friends in love and neighbors?

3. Where is the affection whose soundness I guaranteed,
Where is the pact and where are the oaths?

4. Estrangement and avoidance have helped you,
To kill me while I have no supporters against you.

5. O absent one blaming, this estrangement has been prolonged,
Is there any possibility to get closer?

6. Time, the slanderers, and the envious are pleased with me
While you remain angry.

7. Submit and do not pay attention to an infatuated one,
In whom lethal, burning love resides.

8. Sleep free of worries and say this and that,
From all that Tlemcen's eyes have seen.
