1. I will turn my face away from you, O life
And hate what I had loved of you before
١. سَأَصْرِفُ عَنْكِ يَا دُنْيَايَ وَجْهِي
وَأَبْغِضُ مِنْكَ مَا قَدْ كُنْتُ أَهْوَى
2. I have tasted your waters in many a spring
Thirsting, but found no sweetness there
٢. بَلَوْتُ مَشَارِبَاً لَكِ مُتْرَعَاتٍ
عَلَى ظَمَإِ فَلَمْ أَرَ فِيْكِ صَفْوَا
٣.
