1. O you who left with no fault or cause
Have mercy on a heart that cannot bear
١. يا هاجرين ولا ذَنبٌ ولا سببٌ
ترفّقوا بفُؤادٍ ليسَ يَحْتَمِلُ
2. You have burdened me with your excessive estrangement
More than any plain or mountain could bear
٢. حَمَّلْتمونِي من أَفْراطِ هَجْركُم
ما لَيسَ يحملُه سهلٌ ولا جَبلُ
3. For you were cold, yet the door of excuse is open
And if you cut ties, the cord of love remains connected
٣. لأن جَفوتمْ فَبابُ العذر مُتّسِعٌ
وإن قَطَعتُم فحبلُ الوِدِّ مُتّصِلُ
4. Is it not strange that I express to you
My longing while you hold the details and the whole
٤. أليسَ من عَجَبٍ أنّي أبثّكُم
شوقي وعندكم التَّفصيلُ والجُمَل
