Verse 1:
I fell in love with a beauty, I wish I were her shadow (3 times)
O my eye
She won all beauty and good character.
When I found that she took possession of my heart (3 times)
O my eye
I asked for my heart to be patient and carried along my humiliation

Verse 2:
White the color of jasmine (3 times)
O my eye
On her cheeks one can see flowers
By the life of your cheeks and forehead (3 times)
O my eye
I am the prisoner of love and friendship.

Verse 3:
It never occurred to my heart that you would forget me (3 times)
O my eye
And that my grief would increase
Come back O beautiful, come back again. (3 times)
O my eye
Because of my ardent desire for you I cannot sleep
