1. Do not deny my silence, for he who
Has come close to death's rose, is like the dead.
١. لا تَنكرِي صَمْتي فَإنَّ الذي
قَارَبَ وِرْدَ المَوْتِ كالمَيّتِ
2. Since the gray one was saddled, O this one,
I have been silenced by my affliction from my argument.
٢. مُذْ أُسْرِجَ الأَشُهَبُ يَا هذهِ
مِن لِمَّتي أُلجُمتُ عَن حُجَّتي
