1. يعجبني من يكن يعشقْ

    ويفشى للعباد سرُّوا

    I marvel at anyone who is in love

    and reveals his secret to people.

  2. هداك مسكين أحمقْ

    وَظنيت اختلف رَيوُّا

    That fellow is a poor fool,

    and I thought his judgment had changed.

  3. أنا جسمي فَنى وأرققْ

    وحبِي لم نعد خبروا

    As for me, my body has wasted away and grown thin,

    and I have not recounted my love's story.

  4. تجدني عند ما يُذْكرْ

    في القلبِ يشعل بنيرانه

    You find me whenever he is mentioned,

    with his flames blazing within the heart.

  5. مَنْ هوى المليح يصبرْ

    على صَدّهُ وهجرانه

    Whoever loves the fair one is patient

    in the face of his rejection and abandonment.
