1. You knew what longing I have
After our separation, following our meeting

2. I yearn forever to meet you, bewildered,
Such are the ways of lovers

3. And I shed my tears for you out of love
Wherever blood is spilled

4. I found in you what I saw, but did you see
In me what I saw and found?

5. By God, do not forget affection, lest
This intention fade, however long the separation

6. From me to you, greetings O you whom
Spirits have often conveyed in the horizons

7. From a heart passionate with love
That dictates to me the writing of pages

8. O you whom I have often seen in visions
Perhaps I will see you in reality
