1. Oh hour, that would erase all wrong with it
My lament has gone on too long, my sighs mount ceaselessly
١. أَلا ساعَةٌ يَمْحو بِها الدَّهْرُ ذَنْبِهُ
فَقَدْ طالَ ما أَشْكُو وَما أَتَبَرَّمُ
2. Yet I have never seen one like me with paradise in his eyes
And hellfire in his thoughts, a precarious contrast
٢. فَلَمْ أَرَ مِثْلي بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ جَنَّةٌ
وَبَيْنَ حَشاهُ والتَّراقي جَهَنَّمُ
