1. وَمِنّي وِمَنها اِثنانِ قَلبٌ وَمُقلَةٌ

    مَريضانِ مَغبوطٌ وَآخَرُ يَرحَمُ

    From me and from her, two—a heart and an eye,

    Both ailing—one envied, the other pitied.

  2. وَطَرفي لَها عَمّا بِقَلبي مِنَ الهَوى

    إِذا لَم أُطِق شَكوى إِلَيها مُتَرجِمُ

    And my gaze tells her of the love within my heart,

    An interpreter when I cannot bear to complain to her.
