1. The angry one should not blame me if I was pleased
And grieved for me from the progression of my illness
١. ما على الغضبانِ لو كانَ رَضي
وَرثَى لي من تمادِي مَرضِي
2. He said to me when I complained of love
Thank God, that was his decree
٢. قالَ لي لمَّا تَشكَّيتُ الهَوى
احمدِ اللَهَ كذا كان قَضي
3. I said, God forbid that He would decree this
Rather, it was decreed by the owner of the radiant face
٣. قلت حاشا اللَه أن يقضي بذا
بل قضاهُ صاحبُ الوجهِ الوَضِي
4. You dispersed my tranquility unjustly
So make fairness my compensation
٤. أنتَ شرَّدتَ رُقادي ظالماً
فاجعلِ الإنصافَ منهُ عِوَضِي
