1. I ransomed him from a visitor who visited me
While the night has covered everyone in darkness
١. فديتُهُ من زائرٍ زارني
واللّيل مُسْوَدُّ الجلابيبِ
2. He visited and in him is everything that should be
In people of beauty and goodness
٢. زار وفيه كلّ ما ينبغي
في النّاس من حُسنٍ ومن طِيبِ
3. It did not harm her that she is a liar
To the opinions of the single, lying
٣. ولم يَضِرْها أنّها زَورَةٌ
لعازبِ الآراء مكذوبِ
4. False, she told us a story
And the truth did not come as requested
٤. باطلةٌ روّتْ لنا غُلَّةً
والحقّ لم يأتِ بمطلوبِ
5. If not for the generosity, he would not have given me what I wished
A lover who loves my torment
٥. لولا الكرى ما جاد لي بالمُنى
معشّقٌ يعشقُ تعذيبي
6. And how can I not love the sweetness of generosity
A beloved who came with whom is beloved
٦. وكيف لا أهوى لذيذَ الكرى
محبَّباً جاء بمحبوبِ
