Imbeciles don’t know<br />

The pain of love.<br />

Saliqa<br />

Must I once again rekindle my flame<br />

Or twice that of my sovereign?<br />

Must I chisel out a small glass box<br />

To reverently hold my love in it?<br />

Serilma<br />

My God, my love,<br />

I can’t read your thoughts.<br />

The street you have never been on,<br />

It is impossible to go there.<br />

4. Ötang bayawan muqam<br />

Muqaddima<br />

So long is the road that leads to the bazar<br />

I can’t go there on foot<br />

Nor rent a horse<br />

To feast on your beauty.<br />

Chikitma<br />

I had no strings for my lute<br />

So I pretended.<br />

Miss, you have lost your memory<br />

I will come to refresh it.<br />

You want to leave, my love?<br />

Well go, I don’t care.<br />

Leave my garden,<br />

Other flowers will take your place.<br />

– 23 –<br />

Sanam<br />

Must I once again rekindle my flame<br />

Or twice that of my sovereign?<br />

Must I chisel out a small glass box<br />

To reverently hold my love in it?<br />

Before dying<br />

No one knows the value of life.<br />

No one ever killed himself, just to measure<br />

The value of life.<br />

Saliqa<br />

People complain about seeing me wandering.<br />

But it’s my decision.<br />

Did the whip have to strike eighty times<br />

This love is mine.<br />

Serilma<br />

Take me with you,<br />

Slip me into your pocket.<br />

You will never find a man who, like me,<br />

Can hearten you.<br />

5. Hudek bayawan muqam<br />

Muqaddima<br />

This young woman is conceited,<br />

She doesn’t even know how to dance the muqam.<br />

She darkens her eyebrows with osma 3<br />

But she can’t get men to like her.<br />

3. Plant used by women as make-up.
