1. ما لي أَرى الأَبصارَ بي جافِيَة

    لَم تَلتَفِت مِنّي إِلى ناحِيَه

    Why do I see eyes cold toward me,

    that have not turned to look my way?

  2. لايَنظُرُ الناسُ إِلى المُبتَلى

    وَإِنَّما الناسُ مَعَ العافِيَه

    People do not look toward the afflicted;

    and people keep company only with good fortune.

  3. صَحبي سَلوا رَبَّكُمُ العافِيَة

    فَقَد دَهَتني بَعدَكُم داهِيَه

    My companions, ask your Lord for well-being,

    for a calamity has befallen me since you left.

  4. صارَ مِني بَعدَكُمُ سَيِّدي

    فَالعَينُ مِن هِجرانِهِ باكِيَه

    My master has grown distant from me since you left,

    so my eye weeps at his estrangement.
