1. سَنَسألُ رَيحانَ الصدورِ عَلَيكُمُ

    وَنَلقاهُ بَعدَ الفَجرِ رأيَ عيان

    We shall ask the basil of the bosoms about you,

    and meet it after dawn, with our own eyes.

  2. فَإِن بَحّ في الكِتمانِ فَهوَ إِلَيكُم

    وَإِن باحَ بِالنَجوى فَسَوفَ تَراني

    So if it grows hoarse in secrecy, then it is for you;

    and if it speaks openly of the confidential talk, then you will see me.
