O breeze, bring a scent from the dust of the beloved’s path
Take away the heart’s sorrow and bring the news of the beloved
Tell a soul-refreshing point from the friend’s mouth
Bring a pleasant letter from the world of secrets
So that I may perfume my scent from your gentle breeze
Bring a scent from the breaths of the beloved
By your faithfulness, which is the dust of that dear friend’s path
Bring freedom from the dust that appears from strangers
Bring dust from the path of the friend to spite the rival
For the comfort of this tearful eye
Naivety and simplicity are not the ways of devotees
Bring news from that clever beloved
The soul’s palate has become bitter from the patience I endured without a friend
Bring a coyness from that sweet, sugary lip
********************
My desire for your lips has not been fulfilled yet
I am still drinking dregs in the hope of a ruby cup
On the first day, my faith was lost in the head of your tresses
What will be my fate in this affair still?
O cupbearer, a sip of that fiery water that I
Am still raw among the experienced of his love
In eternity, the ruby-lipped cupbearer gave us
A sip of a cup that I am still inebriated with that cup
O you who said, give your life so that you may have peace of mind
I surrendered my life to his sorrows, I still have no peace
