1. They said, "Do you pursue anyone other than her
O last of youth, erase your first love."
١. قالوا أَتَتَبَّعتَ سِواها وَلَها
يا آخِرَ صَبوَةٍ مَحا أَوَّلَها
2. The verses of my love for her stand clear,
Though for another they may tangled appear.
٢. آياتُ هَوايَ عِندَها مُحكَمَةٌ
إِن هُنَّ تَشابَهنَ لِمَن أَوَّلَها
