1. Your tears have exhausted themselves
So your heart complained of its agony
١. أَعطاكَ دَمعُكَ جُهدَهُ
فَشَكا فُؤادُكَ وَجدَهُ
2. You have burdened your body with passion
More than it could bear, so it weakened
٢. حَمَّلتَ جِسمَكَ في الهَوى
ما لَم يُطِقهُ فَهَدَّهُ
3. O you who gloat at me when you saw
The beloved has deserted and rejected me
٣. يا شامِتاً بي إِذ رَأى
هَجرَ الحَبيبِ وَصَدَّهُ
4. Do not gloat, for he
Is a Master who disciplines His servant
٤. لا تَشمَتَنَّ فَإِنَّهُ
مَولى يُؤَدِّبُ عَبدَهُ
