1. O beautiful face that is close,
To the eyes of creation, without concealment,

2. But now in the eyes there is dust,
Raging with glances and universes,

3. And meanings that appear and disappear,
Of all kinds and colors,

4. And those who see existence little,
From little in all times,

5. You are the light of existence upon us,
Revealed in our eyes and vision,

6. And we are the wretched in heedlessness,
Of you, O most beautiful and benevolent,

7. If an eye sees you one day in life,
That is an eye safe from blindness.
