1. لا بُورِكَ في العذُولِ مَا لِي ومَا لَهُ

    كَمْ يعذُلُنِي أَلْهَاهُ عَنِّي الوَلَهُ

    May the reproacher never be blessed! What have I to do with him?

    How often he reproaches me! May lovesickness distract him from me!

  2. لو يعذُرُنِي لَسَاغَ أنْ أُبَدِّلَهُ

    ما أعذَلَهُ مَكَانَ مَا أعدَلَهُ

    If he would excuse me, I could rightly exchange

    “How reproachful he is!” for “How just he is!”
