by Wallāda bint al-Mustakfī (1010 - 1091)
Translation by Anonymous / Unidentified Author

Cuando apunta la oscuridad
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the Arabic (العربية) 
Espera mi visita cuando apunta la oscuridad
Pues opino que la noche es más encubridora de los secretos
Tengo algo contigo que si coincidiera con el sol
éste no brillaría
y si con la luna, ésta no saldría
y si con las estrellas, éstas no caminarían.

Wallada writes to Ibn Zaydun
