1. O fate, the times have decreed their distance
From me, and distance is punishment enough
١. يا جيرةً حكم الزمان ببعدهم
عني ويكفيني البعادُ عقابا
2. I did not say this door was closed by their nearness
Except that longing opened doors for me
٢. ما قلت هذا الباب سد بقربهم
إلا وتفتح لي النوى أبوابا
