1. In God's name, though you sang to them, my songs were lost on them.
Oh, delight of ears, not eyes!
١. باللهِ إنْ غنيتهِمْ فتبرقَعي
يا نزهةَ الأسماعِ لا الأبصارِ
2. You sang plainly to them, yet their hearts
Are in paradise while their eyes are in hellfire.
٢. غنيتِ سافرةً لهمْ فقلوبهُمْ
في جنةٍ وعيونُهُمْ في نارِ
