My Beloved Asir, heal thy afflicted mind!
From pillar to post you travel, dragging woe
and heartache; It falls as rain in the evenings;
The ever flowing rivers, waging war of mind

A fitted cap, in pain with chattering teeth
Going down on your knees; The days
miserable laments, praying for resolution;
Each day and night, in cold and heat

You poor fool! You are the river, the physician;
Pain's medicine that encircles the earth; The Eagle
overthrown by sorrow, to laugh in a huddle;
Grinding stone, do not swear falsely by the Gods!

Defend yourself, against the evil days
Your herd high on mountain top,
see the stags run from the round hills;
Loving I say to you, from all harmful intentions!

Deliver yourself, don't toss your heart
into wretched punishment; And my boy,
you have no charm about you; Destroyed
when summer is waxing; You haven't fooled me!

Now what are you going to do! Stage heartache?
I'll see some end to this; Oblige me!
Unresting precedence, will be the death of you
The more divine powers live happily on Earth

Open your eyes, with the trust of the old song-maker;
Lady Moon, kisses a beautiful mouth; Drinking
tears from all weary souls, without interruption;
Heavens! Did anyone ever sing for a herdsmen?

I had almost given up hope; Beloved Asir,
cast this hovel, this delicacy and awkwardness aside;
Stand up it suits you perfectly; I'm quite exhausted
now change your tune and sing me your song!
