1. يَظُنُّونَ أنَّ الحُبَّ حَرَّمَهُ الشَّرْعُ

    وليسَ بهِ إلَّا العُقُوبةُ والمَنْعُ

    They think that religious law has forbidden love,

    And that it contains only punishment and prohibition.

  2. وأَوْهَمَنا قَومٌ مَحا اللهُ جَهْلَهُمْ

    بأنَّ لنا دِينًا إلى الحُبِّ لا يَدعو

    And some people misled us—may God erase their ignorance—

    Into believing we have a religion that does not call us to love.
