You're out of sight, no news comes

غبت عني فما الخبر

Not how it used to be between us

ما كَذا بَينَنا اِشتَهَر

Never can I patience make

لا وَلا البُعدِ مُصطَبَر

3. Do not condemn a lover who
Tried for patience but could not endure

رامَ صَبراً فَما قَدَر

4. My eyes denied the vision seen
When you had shown them late nights

حينَ عَرَّفتَها السَهَر

Would have satisfied the sight

٥. فَعَسى مِنكَ نَظرَةٌ
رُبَّما أَقنَعَ النَظَر

Surpassed sun and moon

كَ عَنِ الشَمسِ وَالقَمَر

No word or messenger

لا رَسولٌ وَلا خَبَر

Would you had come, made apologies

لَيتَهُ جاءَ وَاِعتَذَر

For your fair visage forgives

لِمُحَيّاكَ مُغتَفَر

You they see and study clear

قُكَ مَرأىً وَمُختَبَر

Delight of ear and eye to hear

نُزهَةُ السَمعِ وَالبَصَر

Books and legends trumpet fame

تَفخَرُ الكُتُبُ وَالسِيَر

13. When they converse, their talk
Is lily and blossom

فَهُمُ الزُهرُ وَالزَهَر

14. So come favor us, our day
With you a visit graces faire

بِكَ إِن زُرتَنا أَغَر
