1. It has been said that distance relieves the pain of love
But I say it only makes passion overflow
١. قَد قيلَ طولُ البُعدِ يُسلي الفَتى
فَقُلتُ بَل يُفرِطُ في وَجدِهِ
2. That is not true, for in reality
All things are known by their opposite
٢. وَليسَ ذا حَقٍّ وَلَكِنَّهُ
تَوَقُّفُ الشَيءِ عَلى ضِدِهِ
