1. Comfort was made difficult for me when
The beloved turned against me, seeking to slay me.
١. لَقَد عَزَّ العَزاءُ عَلَيَّ لَمّا
تَصَدّى لي لِتَقتلني الصُدودُ
2. When the beloved is distant, everything
In this world and its pleasures feels remote.
٢. إِذا بَعُدَ الحَبيبُ فَكُلُّ شَىءٍ
مِنَ الدُنيا وَلَذّتُها بَعيدُ
