I gently come to you with a poem

أحكم ففيك العذاب عذب

1. I gently come to you with a poem
Soft words of sweet affection in the air

١. أُحْكُمْ فَفِيكَ العَذَابُ عَذْبُ
مَا بَعْدَ حُلْوِ الخِطَابِ خَطْبُ

2. Tears of longing, pain of separation
Yet in you I find my only solace

٢. لِي وَلَهُ فِي هَوَاكَ فَارَ
وَدَمْعُ صَبٍّ عَلَيْكَ صَبُّ

3. A flash of your smile lights up my life
O you who ask about the pleasant breeze

٣. وَمَا تَنَزَّهْتُ فِيكَ حَتَّى
فِيكَ نُزِّهْتُ حِينَ أَصْبُو

4. His shirt is soaked with the scent of union
That is the greeting of my beloved, so dear

٤. وَأَمْكَنَنِي مِنْ لَمَاكَ بَرْقٌ
مِنَ الحَيَا لاَ يَكَادُ يَخْبُو

5. In his promise, veils are lifted near
When he appears, greens refresh those in despair

٥. يَا سَائِلي عَنْ شَذَا نَسِيمٍ
قَمِيصُهُ بِالوِصَالِ رَطْبُ

6. My critic returned with gentle grace
As though a soft wind flowed from his place

٦. ذَاكَ سَلاَمُ الحَبِيبِ وَافَى
فِي عَهْدِهِ لِلِّثَامِ قُرْبُ

7. He hid his betrayal, showed his excuse
For to the lover, all barriers diffuse

٧. إِذَا تَجَلَّى عَلَى النَّدَامى
فَهْوَ لَهُمْ خُضْرَةٌ وَشُرْبُ
