On the day of parting, a gazelle grazed

رعى الله يوم البين ظبيا أذم لي

1. On the day of parting, a gazelle grazed
whose cheeks were reddened by the pain of separation.

١. رعى اللّه يوم البين ظبياً أذمَّ لي
بما أثرَّ التوديعُ في وجَناتِهِ

2. After he left, I sought only sleep
as if I were sick with yearning for his life.

٢. تعاطيتُ إلا النومَ بعد فِراقِهِ
كأنِّي عليه مُسقَمٌ بحياتِهِ

3. I began to blame fate in the night, ceaselessly weeping,
dazed by him, as the night flaunted his beauties.

٣. وصرتُ أذمُّ الدهرَ في الليل مادجَا
وعهي به والليلُ من حسناتهِ
