1. تقاطر مني الدمع حتى تجففت

    وهذا سواد المقتلين تراه

    Tears dripped from me until I dried out.

    And this is the blackness of the two eyes [reading uncertain], which you see.

  2. فلو ركض العذال بحر هواه كا

    ن حين جواب الخصم ما أحيلاه

    Had the reproachers rushed through the sea of his love, it would have

    been, when the adversary replied—how cunning he was [reading uncertain]!

  3. فتلتئم الآراء منا وتجتلى

    تعاطي كؤوس الول في حال مغناه

    Then our views come together and are revealed:

    the drinking of cups of al-wal [unclear], while at his abode.

  4. على أننا همنا فلم يدر أيننا

    Though we wandered in love, he did not know where we were.
