That harem doors veil jewels I'm aware tonight,
But still I'll decide not to visit there tonight.
The nightingale lost his way in the rose garden,
A red mist descended upon the blue air tonight.
I don't approach it neither do I forget it,
Like a lonely widow's ring of despair, tonight.
Desire would go like cinnamon mist at dawn,
To take a sip from it I will not care tonight.
A candle's flame can be turned off by sorrow's breeze,
Yet that breeze gives incense a source to flare tonight.
Two glances are to be considered forbidden,
So I'll delay one glance into a stare tonight.
O Gihon, be as lucid in dreams as in verse,
And write a dream and avoid a nightmare tonight!
