1. O morning drinker, sip your cups
And melt your weariness in their rays

2. The hand of evening will fold your bride
And your morning will weep with the remorseful

3. Wander with your eyes in the vast space
And inhale the fragrance of spiritual purity

4. You will find the earth a doll emptied of evil
On which fools poured a cup of wounds

5. You are to me like an imperious master
In whom the humility of captives is hidden

6. Whenever you come to me, you call me slave
Yet your gaze harbors a spirit of loyalty

7. Call me and do not taste the wine
With eyes purer than sahiba

8. Do not say the radiance of my eyes has disappeared
And leave what Eve has inherited

9. You fear the fire of passion about me
And hope to be saved from its breaths

10. My friend, think well of me
I hope for the glow of its embers

11. O carrier of possessions, go slowly
What call urges you to hurry?

12. Parting is inevitable, so let me
Enjoy this transient moment

13. My love, your passions lit
Fires in my heart, and water fills your right hand

14. A little purity will quench it
And dispel your doubts with certainty

15. The smile of God rang out in the heavens
While human weeping echoed on earth

16. Destinies were determined, so be reassured
Care not if the world's wail turns to song

17. I almost found comfort discussing the ape
First but I denied Adam

18. After his children afflicted me with what
I did not deserve, so I forgave the world

19. O you distressed by claims of
Oneness in existence or in perception

20. Do not split my head, just let me live
A hot life with a cup and lute's song

21. O dreams of meeting, you were betrayed
When meanings of parting emerged

22. I do not grieve over life if I perceive
A kiss or embrace no longer

23. The universe's essence is silent in its heights
So why do attributes speak?

24. This tongue is the bane of these
People - it makes them sick, and all is malady

25. The problems of destiny and fate
Have confused every mighty intellectual

26. Yet the ignorant are sure of themselves
On the edge of an abyss

27. O you who hope for dawn's purity amidst the course of time
May God moisten its breeze with affection

28. The dawn of tears in his afflictions is a love
Genius of intimacy and deprivation

29. What religion forbids tears and lament
Of a lover whom yearning has exhausted?

30. Do not blame me if I cry, for my heart's
Silence is blasphemy, and its sighs, devotion.

31. O lips of the beloved, you are to me
A mirage in form, while my kiss is thirsty

32. If only when I forgot you in them I could forget
My tears when I recalled your affection

33. What secret do you conceal from me
When I meet you in dreams?

34. You spread light but then disappear
Without breathing the scent of my greeting

35. My youth is gone, and the days returned to me
The time you hoarded my youth

36. Forgive me if in longing for the bloom of youth
I complained excessively of my regrets

37. O daughter of love and youth, give me
I did not lie in promising forgetfulness

38. What you say when love sends
Rubble wrapped in wishes

39. O wet nurse, the child is hungry so feed him
And do not wake him if he sleeps

40. Or say, would you not prefer that he never was
So the days would not weigh on him

41. I am dawn folded by the rest of night
Disdainful of the universe and creatures

42. Oh, if only paralysis released me
Or revived me with scattered light

43. Fate imprisoned me in the cage of clay
Not forgetting to tighten my ties

44. If only it unleashed me to perish
And perish my misery and burning

45. I am not a hypocrisy slave, my people, so go on
And seek one who lives in hypocrisy

46. It is enough we are equals in bondage
Though I prefer emancipation

47. Forgive me, O Lord, if my life passed
Between my complaints, burning, and cups

48. There is no good in people, and my fortunes
Were addled, so blessings are like curses

49. Swim, O stars, in praise of God
For He is Lord of the stars and spheres

50. Surely one who does not praise God in the universe
Is far from the realm of angels

51. Do not tell me the red arrows of my eyes
Sing of fervor and quench passion's thirst

52. For the eye of fate is more deadly
With omens on my breast and loosing arrows

53. Hurry your steps before dawn breaks
And we pass by, separated, in place

54. We are two happy birds in the night
Singing joy to the spheres

55. Kiss me, O lady of love, if you wish
And if you wish, kiss the ruins

56. We are intimate in misery, and if
Yearning and questioning increase

57. O daughter of love and youth, give me
I did not lie when I spoke of forgetfulness

58. What you say when love resurrects
Rubble shrouded in wishes

59. Nurse the infant, O cherished one, for he is hungry
And do not wake him if he sleeps

60. Or say, would you not prefer that he never was
So he does not burden the days

61. I am dawn whose rest folded the night
Scornful of the universe and creatures

62. Oh, if only paralysis released me
Or my scattered light revived the lost

63. They jailed me, the fates in clay's cage
Not forgetting to tighten my ties

64. Would that they unleashed me to perish
And perish my woe and burning

65. I'm no hypocrite slave, my people, so go
And seek one who lives hypocritically

66. It's enough we're equal in shackles
Though I prefer emancipation

67. Forgive me, O Lord, if life passed
Between my moans, burning, and cups

68. There's no good in people, and my fortunes
Addled, so blessings are like curses

69. Swim, O stars, praising God
Who is Lord of stars and orbits

70. Surely one who does not praise God in the universe
Is far from the angels' realm

71. Do not tell me the red arrows of my eyes
Sing fervently and quench passions

72. For the eye of fate is more deadly
With omens over my breast loosing arrows

73. Hurry your steps before the dawn breaks
And we pass separated in place

74. We're two happy birds in the night
Singing joy unto the spheres

75. Kiss me, mistress of love, if you wish
Or if you wish, kiss the ruins

76. We are intimate in misery, and if
Yearning and questioning grow

77. O daughter of love and youth, give me
I did not lie when I spoke of forgetfulness

78. What you say when love resurrects
Rubble wrapped in wishes

79. Nurse the infant, o cherished one, he's hungry
Don't wake him if he's sleeping

80. Or say, would you not prefer he never was
So he's not a burden to the days

81. I'm the dawn whose night's rest folded it
Scornful of the universe and creatures

82. If only paralysis released me
Or my scattered light revived the lost

83. Fate jailed me, in clay's cage
Not forgetting to tighten my ties

84. If only it unleashed me, to perish
And perish my woe and burning

85. I'm no hypocrite's slave, my people, so go
And seek one who lives hypocritically

86. It's enough we're equal in shackles
Though I prefer emancipation

87. Forgive me Lord if life has passed
Between my moans, burning, and cups

88. There's no good in people, and my fortunes
Addled, so blessings are like curses

89. Swim, o stars, praising God
Who's Lord of stars and orbits

90. Surely one who does not praise God in the universe
Is far from the angels' realm

91. Tell me not the red arrows of my eyes
Sing fervently and quench passions

92. For the eye of fate is most deadly
With omens over my breast loosing arrows

93. Hasten your steps before the dawn breaks
And we'll pass separated in place

94. We're two happy birds in the night
Singing joy unto the spheres

95. Kiss me, mistress of love, if you wish
Or if you wish, kiss the ruins

96. We are intimate in misery, and if
Yearning and questioning grow

97. O daughter of love and youth, give me
I did not lie when I spoke of forgetfulness

98. What you say when love resurrects
Rubble wrapped in wishes

99. Nurse the infant, O cherished one, he's hungry
Don't wake him if he's sleeping

100. Or say, would you not prefer he never was
So he's not a burden to the days

101. I'm the dawn whose night's rest folded it
Scornful of the universe and creatures

102. If only paralysis released me
Or my scattered light revived the lost
