منwho منصفيone who does me justice منagainst حبيبٍa beloved فيin محبتهlove for him
من منصفي من حبيبٍ في محبته
أحياI live وأيسرُand the least ماwhat قاسيتI endured ماthat which قتلاhas killed
أحيا وأيسرُ ما قاسيت ما قتلا
Who will do me justice against a beloved in whose love
Who can be just to a lover in his love?
I live, though the least of what I have endured is deadly?
He keeps me alive and kills me by turns.

لولا لواحظه المرضى لما وجدت

Were it not for his languid glances, death would never have found
If it were not for the sick I tend,
For itself paths to our souls.
Death would have found no way to my soul.
