1. Give up your shunning and desertion,

    And quench my flame and longing.

  2. An hour of union with you and nearness to you

    Is dearer to me than life.

  3. You were content to spurn me,

    And my absence mattered little to you,

  4. Though you knew my love.

    May God give my heart patience.

  5. O narcissus of the garden, why have you

    Turned your glance upon me?

  6. What seared me was your beauty,

    But I am the cause of it.

  7. Henna your hands with my tears,

    And draw bracelets on them.

  8. And if you fear my reproacher,

    Let down your hair as curtains.

  9. For your sake, my sleep has forsaken me,

    And for you I have shunned every friend.

  10. And for the sake of nearness and union with you,

    I have befriended those who are not dear to me.

Sol 6.1
