in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, ¹  in troubles, ²  in sleepless nights, in hunger,

in hard work and toil, ¹  through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, many times without food, in cold and without enough clothing. ² 

I was consumed by scorching heat ¹  during the day and by piercing cold ²  at night, and I went without sleep. ³ 

whenever ¹  I remember you on my bed, and think about you during the nighttime hours.

I stay awake; ¹  I am like a solitary bird on a roof.

You keep track of my misery. ¹  Put my tears in your leather container! ²  Are they not recorded in your scroll? ³ 

The Beloved about Her Lover: All night long ¹  on my bed ²  I longed for ³  my lover. ⁴  I longed for ⁵  him but he never appeared. ⁶
