1. I want to forget her, yet it's as though
Layla appears to me in every way
١. أُريدُ لأنسى ذِكرها فَكأَنَّما
تمثَّلُ لي لَيلى بِكُلِّ سَبيلِ
2. And say to Umm Amr, his ailment and cure
Are with her, and seeing her cured him of madness
٢. وَقُل أُمُّ عَمروٍ داؤُهُ وَشِفاؤُه
لَدَيها وَرَيّاها الشِّفاءُ مِن الخَبلِ
