Mecnunum Leylamı gördümBir kerece baktı geçtiNe sordum nede söylediKaşlarını yıktı geçti
Soramadım bir çift sözüAymıydı günmüydü yüzüSandım ki Zühre yıldızıŞavkı beni yaktı geçti
Ateşinden duramadımBen bu sırra eremedimSeher vakti göremedimYıldız gibi aktı geçti
Bilmem hangi burç yıldızıBu dertler yareler biziGamze okun bazı bazıYar sineme çaktı geçti
izzet-i der ne hikmet işUyur iken gördüm bir düşZülüflerin kemend etmişYar boynuma taktı geçti
I was a mecnun, I saw my Leyla*,She looked once in my direction and passed by,I didn't ask either, she answered,She just passed by.
I couldn't ask a couple of words,Her face was it the moon or daylight?I thought she was the star of Venus passing by,The brightness of light burnt right through me.
I could not come to a stop from her heat,I could not know her secret,I could not see the time of twilight,Like a star, she disappeared and passed by.
I do not know which astrological star she is,These sorrows make us eager,Your dimples revive me every now and then,Love has failed and passed me by.
Izzer-i says what is the reason for an affair?I had a dream while I was waking up,She had changed her love lock into a necklace,Love, hang it on my neck she said and passed by me.
