1. I was told that Layla sent intercession
To me, so shouldn't Layla's soul be her intercessor?
١. وَنُبِّئتُ لَيلَى أَرسَلَت بِشَفاعَةٍ
إِلَىَّ فَهلاَّ نَفسُ لَيلَى شَفِيعُهَا
2. Is she more generous to me than Layla that she seeks
Through him eminence, or was I not a man who obeys her?
٢. أَأَكرَمُ مِن لَيلَى عَلَىَّ فَتَبتَغِى
بِهِ الجاهَ أَم كُنتُ امرَءً الا أُطِيعُهَا
