1. تَعَبٌ يَطولُ لِذي الرَجاءِ مَعَ الهَوى

    خَيرٌ لَهُ مِن راحَةٍ في الياسِ

    Long-lasting weariness for one who hopes in love

    is better for him than rest in despair.

  2. لَولا مَحَبَّتُكُم لَما عاتَبتُكُم

    وَلَكُنتُمُ عِندي كَبَعضِ الناسِ

    Were it not for my love for you, I would not reproach you,

    and to me you would be like anyone else.
