1. You have made me the ultimate lover of them all
So they all grieve for me when we are parted
١. صَيَّرتِني غايَةَ العُشّاقِ كُلِّهِمِ
فَكُلُّهُم يَتَأَسّى بي إِذا هُجِرا
2. Never do I remember a day you made joyous for me
While time evokes in me sorrow and tears
٢. لا أَذكُرُ الدَهرَ يَوماً مِنكَ أَبهَجَني
وَالدَهرُ يَبعَثُ مِنّي الحُزنَ وَالعِبَرا
3. You filled my eye, so it looks to no other
My heart loved you beyond what was fated
٣. مَلَأتَ عَينِ فَما تَسمو إِلى أَحَدٍ
وَقَد أَحَبَّكَ قَلبي فَوقَ ما قَدَرا
4. My gaze beautifies for me one who has hurt me
As if my gaze were my enemy whenever it looked
٤. طَرفي يُحَسِّنُ لي شَخصاً أَضَرَّ بِهِ
كَأَنَّ طَرفي عَدوّي كُلَّما نَظَرا
5. If a person could find happiness in true passion
I would be the happy one never touched by contempt
٥. لَو كانَ يَسعَدُ إِنسانٌ بِصِدقِ هَوىً
كُنتُ السَعيدَ الَّذي لَم يُمسِ مُحتَقَرا
