1. طِرْ أَيُّها الطَّير واهْجُرْ ما خُدِعْتَ به

    فليس للحُبِّ نُلقي الحَبَّ لِلعاصي

    Fly, O bird, and leave behind what deceived you.

    For it is not out of love that we cast grain to the disobedient one.

  2. وإنَّما هذه الأشياءُ سائرُها

    وإنْ حلَتْ لك أشراكٌ لأَقفاص

    And all these things are nothing but—

    though sweet to you—snares leading to cages.
