1. Oh night of intimacy whose cups overflowed
Bestowing upon minds the sweetest nectar

2. Its beauty narrated from Joseph’s beauty glutted
Every heart that felt like Jacob’s longing heart

3. It has seized our feelings so they incline
To it with the branches of passionate love each robe

4. Had Jacob’s eye seen it, it would have glutted him
With preoccupation from his yearning heart

5. Its glorious past has brought it to us with skill
Of far-reaching hand well-versed in every art

6. And endowed it from its subtlety and left hand
With the marvels of magic ever shifting

7. And clothed it in a dress from Joseph’s beauty
With no match for that embroidered shirt

8. And adorned it from Jacob’s tears when he grieved
With necklaces of pearls arranged to dazzle

9. So it remains a garden quickening for gentlefolk
With the sweet fragrance of its breaths each breeze

10. The breeze of thankfulness passes through its freshness
Spreading the scent of perfume in every spot
