1. My beloved came to me joyfully
And in his nearness I forgot my sorrows

2. I didn't expect to see him again
After he had abandoned me

3. I loved him when I saw his love
The reason for my bliss and delight

4. Before living with him
I suffered loneliness and woes

5. And when I loved him he quenched
My thirst from the wine of his passion

6. His beautiful soul brings me joy
And his beauty delights my heart

7. When I see him near me
I envy my heart for its love

8. And when he hears my melodies
He shows me affection and gentleness

9. My beloved, who is like my beloved
In his beauty or in his words

10. I accepted him as my fate in life
And accepted his abandonment and discord

11. And the day he came to me joyfully
He gladdened me after making me cry
