1. حَمّلْتنِي في هواك ما لا

    يَقْوَى على حملِه شَمَامُ

    In loving you, you have burdened me with what not even

    Mount Shamām has the strength to bear.

  2. وأمَّل العاذلون صبري

    يا بُعْد ما أمّلوا ورامُوا

    And the reproachers hoped for my patience—

    How far beyond reach was what they hoped for and sought!
