1. تَسَلَّيتُمُ عَني وَلَم أَسلُ عَنكُمُ

    وَلا عاقَني يا مُنيَتي عَنكَ عائِقُ

    You have ceased longing for me, but I have not ceased longing for you;

    Nor has any obstacle kept me from you, O my heart’s desire.

  2. وَكَيفَ سُلُوّي عَنكَ يا مَن بِكَفِّهِ

    حَياتي لَهُ غادٍ عَلَيَّ وَطارِقُ

    And how could I cease longing for you, O you in whose palm

    My life lies, and whose visitors come to me morning and night?
