May you be greeted—then greet me, O gazelle of the bān trees.
Greetings to you—so greet me, O gazelle of the bān tree.
Though I am far away in body, my heart is near.

If a lightning flash dazzles you, it is from my breath;
If a flash of lightning comes over you, it is from my breath;
Or if a rain cloud showers down upon you, it comes from my eyelids.
Or if a rain cloud showers you, it is from my eyelids.
