1. I have learned of beauty what an ignorant man does not know
So I do not blame one who is ignorant and finds fault

2. For God has denied him acceptance
And he knows I do not accept

3. If I had a strong resolve in determination
I would not act this way because of him

4. You came to my heart asking permission to enter
But my heart has sworn you cannot enter

5. Your silence is a heavy burden on my heart
And when you speak to me it is even harder to bear

6. So tell me, what meaning can be valid
For what reason can you be blamed?

7. Your love for me is enough, do not wish for more
It is enough that I am hasty

8. Love is but the polished sword
When blame passes over it, it is polished

9. The fairest of faces in the darkness of night
Their light dispels the gloom, their night is not dark

10. You see their fire set for burning hearts
They lit it but did not light their own lamps

11. Between their homes are unsheathed swords
The darkness takes its hue from these bared blades

12. Are those the ones your eyes have killed?
There I shall be slain or be the slayer
