1. Does the ruins of Salma revive with yearning?
When we stopped, hearts writhing,

2. Tears pouring, ribs trembling,
Between sobbing and wailing, a burning sensation,

3. Where the wounds are, if they speak they cool down
I tell the tears, flow more, perhaps

4. With the unseen of the absent love it will witness
I did not know the eye before parting

5. The day after passion from the intensity of love freeze
I have not seen an eye more stingy with its tears about me

6. Nor anyone envying me more about tears
Separation equalized on me, that it did not see me

7. I cried but no place was left for the woeful
When dawn approached they called to depart

8. So we got up miserable, their walking loving
To a group like the hump, no longer

9. A dwelling from past years, and the paved courtyard
To every neighing of the winds as if

10. It is complaining of throat dryness or conspiring
Their snouts leak water as if it

11. Is knotted to the drinking bowl's rim
And they are saddled, adorned with finery

12. As vegetation adorned with necklaces intertwined
They trotted until I said they are not organisms

13. And melted like heated copper
Scattering perfume and musk holding back

14. With it a menstruating woman or a pregnant one
And they gathered hastily and left me

15. With the uproar of ruination standing confused
As passion excited them in the evening

16. For it while it has shackled hands tied
So I was infatuated when they arrived at our ruin

17. While they were at fervid water even farther
By Allah I do not know if it was muddy they agreed on

18. Or fresh sharp water they went down to
Just yesterday they did not return the like of their beauty to a dale

19. By my life, the morning is rough on the youth who endures
And that she-camel knew that you

20. Whenever you tread the path of guidance become ardent
