1. جعلت سميري فيكم أنجم الدجا

    أطارحها شجواً يضيق به قلبي

    I have made the stars of night my confidants concerning you;

    I share with them a sorrow that constricts my heart.

  2. فأنتم نجومي كونكم نور ناظري

    كما هي للشكوى إليها غدت صحبي

    For you are my stars, since you are the light of my eye,

    just as they have become my companions through my laments to them.
