1. I asked Muhammad when estrangement dragged on
And reproach was cut off between us
١. سَلَوْتُ محمَّداً لمَّا تَمادى
به الهِجرانُ وانقطَع العِتابُ
2. Spring may be forgotten when its nights have gone
And youth may be consoled of sorrow and loss
٢. وقد يُنسَى الربيعُ إذا تَولَّتْ
لَيَاليَهُ وقد يُسْلى الشّبابُ
