Since you have graced my heart, O Beloved,
Since you have settled within my soul, Beloved,
Each night is moonlight, each day a spring, Beloved.
Cool breezes whisper, stirring whispers,
Your voice echoes within my ears,
Cool breezes whisper, stirring whispers,
Your voice echoes within my ears.
My bangles sing, “He will return to my courtyard,”
I shall emerge, adorned in sixteen graces, Beloved.
Since you have graced my heart, O Beloved.
Not distant is the wedding, no longer,
Henna shall adorn my hands,
Not distant is the wedding, no longer,
Henna shall adorn my hands.
Now this earth is ours,
And this sky, too, is ours.
Your love has brought a thousand joys, Beloved.
Since you have graced my heart,
Settled within, settled within, Beloved.
