1. If my love turns away his gaze for fear
Of spies or to conceal his inner blaze,
١. إِن عاقَ عَنِ الحَبيبِ طَرفاً لَحَظَه
خَوفُ الرُقَباء واِتّقاءُ الحَفَظَه
2. Then even as I sleep I see his phantom pass
And waking, conjure up our nights of sweet embrace.
٢. في النَوم أَلِفتُ طارقَ الطيف كَما
صَوَّرتُ خَيال وَصلِهِ في اليَقَظَه
