1. With my soul I ransom
Abdul Aziz, my master

2. He who has wasted away my body
With his passionate love

3. If I die of love for him
Do not seek my murderer

4. His stature and cheek
Are a branch with a tender rose

5. Abdul Aziz’s neck
Is the neck of a beautiful gazelle

6. Abdul Aziz’s stature
Is like a straight spear

7. Abdul Aziz’s face
Shines like the full moon

8. Abdul Aziz’s saliva
If it is fresh and cold

9. It melts the ice
With Abdul Aziz I ransom myself

10. With what I have no ransom
