1. كم ذا التجافي يا رشا

    والحب منك قد نشا

    How long this aloofness, O young gazelle,

    when love has sprung from you?

  2. طب يا مليح فالهوى

    في مهجتي قد عرشا

    Be at ease, O fair one, for love

    has made its home within my heart.

  3. كل الذي تهواه يا

    أقصى المنى كما تشا

    All that you desire, O

    supreme hope, shall be as you wish.

  4. فارفق بصب ذي جوى

    من حره ذاب الحشى

    So be gentle with a lovesick soul in anguish:

    its heat has melted his inmost heart.
