1. I have tasted love, joined and ever-joined
Though forsaken, my reward is none but my reward
١. بَلَوتُ الحُبَّ مَوصولاً وَصولاً
وَمَهجوراً أُثابُ سِوى ثَوابي
2. Thus no life's like the joining after estrangement
And naught is sweeter than reproach
٢. فَلا عَيشٌ كَوَصلٍ بَعدَ هَجرٍ
وَلا شَيءٌ أَلَذُّ مِنَ العِتابِ
