1. Distressed by estrangement and indifference, he has
No patience for abandonment and aloofness that bring him joy
١. مُروّعٌ بالقِلَى والصَّدِّ ليس له
صبرٌ على الهجرِ والإعراضِ يُسْعِدُهُ
2. When the light of day tires his weeping eyes
And the imagination approximates the length of estrangement that promises him
٢. إذَا استَغَرّ الكَرى أجفانَ مُقلَتِه
وَافَى الخيالُ بطولِ الهجرِ يُوعِدُهُ
3. His tears ignite embers that flare within him
While the embers overflow the water that extinguishes them
٣. تُذكي مدامُعُه جَمراً تسعَّر في
حشاهُ والجمرُ فيضُ الماءِ يُخْمِدُهُ
