1. My affliction has returned and placed before me
Arrows with which I was swiftly struck
١. عادَ بأسي عَليَّ وقدَّم
تُ سِهاماً بِها رُميتُ سَريعا
2. And my defenses for your true affection have become
For you an impenetrable fortress against calumny
٢. وحِفاظي لصدقِ ودِّك أمسَى
لكَ حِصناً مِن الهِجاءِ مَنيعا
