1. O you who forgot time and our hearts counting it
How many nights have I been absent with obsession playing with me

2. You are neither with nor against my heart, O most precious one
It is all the same, except for my comfort or the toiling of my heart

3. My heart flows down my cheeks.. a rose water
A heart experienced sorrows that make me ache

4. And if I say there must be a cooling, the passion increases
I am wretched because of you, and my complaint is to my Lord

5. O you whose absence makes the moon disappear, not from his cheek
The beauty is your beauty, and I have many sins

6. Whoever embraces a sword, his cheek is bound to be wounded
And whoever loves embers, in him the fire will kindle
