1. The son of the prophet called me, but I did not answer,
Yearning with the yearning of the ignorant opinion,
١. دَعَانِي ابنُ النَّبِيّ فَلَم أُجِبهُ
ألَهفِي لَهفَ لِلرَأي الغَبِينِ
2. So oh what regret the next morning when I left Zaid,
Behind me, for the son of Amina the trusted.
٢. فَيا نَدَمَاً غَداةَ تَرَكتُ زَيدَاً
وَرائي لابنِ آمِنَةَ الأَمينِ
