1. Sweet water whose sources have been barred—

    one who finds it but is denied it and one who lacks it are alike.

  2. You turn away from an inaccessible beloved whom you do not see;

    bitter is deprivation of a beloved you behold.

  3. He let his locks fall before me, making me wonder:

    Is it she whom I veiled, or his maidservants?

  4. If only he had cut from my eyelid to mend it,

    and, if it sufficed, his undergarments were tailored from it.

  5. His are the figure, the waist, and the kohl-darkened eye;

    so how can one whose stratagems are these be wearied?

  6. And never have I sought to forget my love for him

    without my heart aiding him against my whole self.
