1. Who will convey to Abu Kamil
That when he is absent, I yearn like an ardent lover,
١. مَن مُبلِغٌ عَنّي أَبا كامِلِ
أَنّي إِذا ما غابَ كَالهامِلِ
2. And the time passed between us makes me long more for his nearness,
When I meet him, I remain intoxicated with joy for days.
٢. وَزادَني شَوقاً إِلى قُربِهِ
ما قَد مَضى مِن دَهرِنا الحائِلِ
٣. إِنّي إِذا عاطَيتُهُ مُزَةً
ظَلتُ بيومِ الفَرَحِ الجاذِلِ
