1. You met me one night on the pathway
When you were still mine and joyful.

2. Do not betray the love of Aziza after
You made pledges and promises to me.

3. When a lover loves his beloved,
He is sincere and fulfills his vows.

4. God knows, if I wanted more
Love for Aziza, I'd find no more.

5. The monks of Medina, whom I knew
Stay seated fearing torment.

6. If they heard her words like I did
They'd bow down to Aziza, kneeling in prayer.

7. And a dead man would spread his bones
To be touched, and live forever to see you.
