1. Woe to what the slanderer invented and conveyed
As if your eyes didn't say to people, "Enough!"

2. If not for loyalty and keeping my promise
I would have worn earrings to blame and reprimand you

3. You stood at my ailing body on the hills
Yet didn’t ask about following the ways of ascending

4. I granted you power, yet your imagination did not transgress
So the longing one did not say what he did

5. If not for your speech, your manners
Would have been when you insist on your habits and connection

6. You left me on the carpet of sickness to meet
What every healthy one desires is not what the afflicted wishes

7. Even if the daughters of time console me
With your nearness, I wouldn’t know amusement and flirtation

8. Oh you who killed me in the name of love, no vengeance
And blinded my heart with eyelids, no insight

9. The neighbor of the foothill of Lebanon’s generosity
Matches my tears when it pours heavily or drizzles gently

10. Your covenants changed colors like my days
And you replaced me without me seeking a substitute

11. Reluctantly, youth bid its farewell and companionship disbanded
Shedding attire off its days and donning new garments

12. They named the darkness upon its moons as poetry
And the blooming rose in its branches bashfully bowed

13. Oh woe to the fracture of a youth I prided myself with
And a lifetime of connection that was forthcoming

14. I complained that one with a pleasant appearance shook me
Or the essence of life after you tempted and drew near

15. From a stand like the edge of a sword beside you
I walked on, and the edge of the sword withdrew

16. A visit for me, and the star's eye was sleepy
From Sirius, and the darkness of night did not mix henna

17. I was ignorant in it, so I attained purpose hastily
And indeed, one realizes pleasures through ignorance

18. The fire of passion did not die out with tears
As you claimed, and the wound of longing did not heal

19. Oh, for a heart captive in your travels
I advised it about you, but my efforts did not accept

20. At the arch of promises, I presented a need
Yet fulfilling the appointment lingered for so long

21. The intensions of all creatures dispraised
While I thanked the generous horses, or else without

22. A horizon of clarity you granted me its rises
And for the wilderness the full moon does not set

23. The clouds are none other than the Honored King
Who blessed the land, so plains and mountains prospered
