In the prime of my youth, as it happens and you know, I had a secret and intimate relationship with a beautiful person, because he had a pleasant voice and a face like the full moon when it appears.

The one whose facial down drinks the water of life

Whoever eats candy looks at his sugar content with gratitude.

By chance, I saw an action from him that was against my nature and I did not like it; I withdrew my affection from him, ended our relationship, and said:

Go and pursue whatever you desire

You do not have our head (care about us), take care of your own head (yourself).

I heard him as he was leaving, saying:

If a bat does not desire union with the sun

It does not diminish the prosperity of the sun's market.

He said this and traveled, and his departure had an effect on my distress.

I lost the time of union, and man is ignorant

Of the value of the pleasure of life before misfortunes.

But with thanks and gratitude to God, after a while he returned, that Davidic voice had changed and the Joseph-like beauty had diminished, and on his chin, like quince, dust had settled and the prosperity of his beauty market was broken, expecting that I would embrace him, I distanced myself and said:

The day when you had youthful beauty

You drove away connoisseurs with your gaze.

Today you have come for reconciliation

Having placed kasra and damma on it (changed it).

Fresh spring, your leaf has turned yellow

Do not set the pot, for our fire has become cold.

How long will you strut and be arrogant?

You imagine the past fortune.

Go to the one who seeks you

Show your affection to the one who is your buyer (lover).

Greenery in the garden, they say, is pleasant

Only the one who says this knows its meaning.

Meaning, the green down on the faces of beautiful people

Seeks the hearts of lovers even more.

Your orchard is full of weeds

Because you keep pulling them out and they grow back.

Whether you endure or do not pluck the hair of your sideburns

This fortune of good times will come to an end.

If I had control over my life like you over your beard

I would not let it grow until the Day of Judgment.

I asked and said: Your facial beauty

What has happened that ants swarm around the moon?

He replied: I do not know what happened to my face?

Perhaps it has dressed in black for the mourning of my beauty.
