1. My heart is confused, who loves and who consoles
And who is she, other than the virgins, for him a family
١. تحير قلبي من يحب ومن يسلو
ومن هي من دون العذارى له أهل
2. If my heart were frozen, it would give me rest
And spare me what's other than it, fire and murder
٢. ولو كان قلبي جلمدا لأراحني
وجنبي ما دونه النار والقتل
3. But it is my heart, and my heart is a vine
Of swaying branches that cast no shade
٣. ولكنه قلبى وقلبي خميلة
يبابية الأغصان ليس لها ظل
4. Yet in it is a drop of the dew of love
That makes the wanderer crazed and the abode flourish
٤. على أن فيه من ندى الحب قطرة
يهيم بها الصادي ويزكو بها المحلُ
