If I had called your phantom truthful

لو أنني سميت طيفك صادقا

1. If I had called your phantom truthful
I would have named it angry or blaming

١. لَو أَنَّني سَمَّيتُ طَيفَكَ صادِقاً
لَدَعَوتُهُ غَضبانَ أَو عَتّابا

2. The imagination said you have lied, I'm no visitor
By night, nor an oft returning guest

٢. قالَ الخَيالُ كَذَبتَ لَستُ بِطارِقٍ
لَيلاً وَلَم أَكُ زائِراً مُنتابا

3. So I told it, how many a book has come visiting
Then it was disturbed, swearing I had sent no letter

٣. فَأَجَبتُهُ كَم مِن كِتابٍ زائِرٍ
فَاِهتاجَ يَحلِفُ ما بَعَثتُ كِتابا

4. Pens do not record a sleeper's stumble
If with his dream you were suspicious

٤. لا تُثبِتُ الأَقلامُ زَلَّةَ راقِدٍ
إِن كُنتَ بِتَّ بِحُلمِهِ مُرتابا

5. Your Lord did not pardon an insistent rebel
Rather He forgave a wrongdoer who repented

٥. لَم يَعفُ رَبُّكَ عَن مُصِرٍّ مارِدٍ
لَكِن تَجاوَزَ عَن مُسيءٍ تابا
