1. The beloved came while the tail of night hung down
So his resplendent face dispelled its darkness

2. My companion said to me, as he raised his hands to the light
That shone through our night, parting its veils:

3. "Do you not see the light in the dark night? Indeed
Time has come with wonders among its burdens"

4. I said "Oh you who blame the light of his rising
Do you not see the moon wax in its arcs?"
