1. In my dreams, I see everything that delights me,
Yet my visions after waking are more bitter and uglier.
١. أَرى في مَنامي كُلَّ شَيءٍ يَسُرُّني
وَرُؤيايَ بَعدَ النَومِ أَدهى وَأَقبَحُ
2. If it was good, it is but the ramblings of a dreamer,
And if it was evil, it came with the morning light.
٢. فَإِن كانَ خَيراً فَهُوَ أَضغاثُ حالِمٍ
وَإِن كانَ شَرّاً جاءَ مِن قَبلِ أُصبِحُ
