1. سَطرت الدهم بِالشُهبِ

    وَقَلبي ظامِىء وَلِهِ

    I inscribed the darkness with shooting stars.

    And my heart is thirsty, distraught with love.

  2. وَلي شَوق يَلي شَجنا

    وَكَم لي في الهَوى وَلَهِ

    And I have a longing that follows sorrow.

    And how much anguish is mine in love!
