1. What is upon one who smells Ahmad's soil
Except to not distance from affection?

2. I wished for a heart that weakened from parting with him
That it would not perceive the length of time as painful.

3. Misfortunes were poured upon me, if they
Had fallen upon a mountain, it would have collapsed.

4. And my affliction is in al-Mustafa - if it
Had poured upon the days, the nights would have wailed.
