1. I procrastinate with you, my soul - no, I prolong
And I avert my eyes from you - no, I turn them away

2. Nothing has saddened me except what my waist has snatched away
Nothing has pleased me except what my lips have seized

3. I resist yet my youth draws me to you
And I incline yet my passions pull me to you

4. Were it not for tears whose flow reveals my longing
My longing for you would not be described by this describer

5. And I know the ways of reason if I could follow them
Yet I have a heart that goes against me

6. Never in love have I had a moment of joy
That pleased me during the nights of chatting

7. Between me and success with you are dispositions
Truly they are calamity, not glory and denial
