1. رَكِبتُ طِرفي فأَذرى دَمعَهُ أَسَفاً

    عِندَ اِنصرافيَ مِنهُم مُضمِرَ الياسِ

    I mounted my steed, and he shed his tears in sorrow

    as I departed from them, harboring despair.

  2. وَقالَ حَتّامَ تؤذيني فإِن سَنَحَتْ

    جَوانِحٌ لَكَ فاركَبني إِلى النَّاسِ

    And he said, “How long will you hurt me? If there appear

    favorable omens for you, ride me to the people.”
