1. نَزورُكُم لا نُكافيكُم بِجَفوَتِكُم

    إِنَّ المُحِبَّ إِذا لَم يُستَزَر زارا

    We visit you, not repaying your coldness in kind.

    For the lover, when not invited to visit, visits anyway.

  2. يَستَقرِبُ الدارَ شَوقاً وَهيَ نازِحَةٌ

    مَن عالَجَ الشَوقَ لَم يَستَبعَدِ الدارا

    In his longing, he deems the dwelling near, though it is far away.

    Whoever has wrestled with longing does not deem the dwelling far.
