1. How gentle, O companion, northwards you wandered
Intoxicated, stumbling on your excessive train
١. ما أَلطَفَ يا صاحِ شِمالاً خَطَرَت
سكرى بِفضول ذيلها قَد عثرَت
2. Your spirit conforming, when you flowed away
While between my loved ones and me was a journey
٢. بِالروح لَها تناسبٌ حينَ سَرَت
إِذ بَينَ أَحبَّتي وَبَيني سَفَرَت
