“O’ raven! Narrate the news of the loved ones
who are in a far off land
O’ bird! I would then decorate
all your feathers with gold
Fly above the Beloved’s house
and please deliver my message to him.”

and give the news of the motherland,
Are my loved ones alright
and does happiness prevail in my land?
For my Beloved I have been looking a lot
towards the far off land.”

( 1 داμÇئن ðjرب، ÄÇ) O’ raven! I would hand over my heart
to you
to take it to the far off land
and eat it in the presence of my Beloved
Perhaps the Beloved may inquire
as to who has offered this sacrifice.”
