1. My brother, by God the ditches have been filled
And keeping company with you brings me doubt
١. أَخي وَاللَهِ قَد مُلِئَ الوِطابُ
وَداخَلَني بِصُحبَتِكَ اِرتِيابُ
2. Once I hoped in you and another time blamed
But neither hope nor blame avails
٢. رَجَوتُكَ مَرَّةً وَعَتَبتُ أُخرى
فَلا أَجدى الرَجاءُ وَلا العِتابُ
3. You have cast off my affection so congratulations on my distance
For this is the last of our bonds
٣. نَبَذتَ مَوَدَّتي فَاِهنَأ بِبُعدي
فَآخِرُ عَهدِنا هَذا الكِتابُ
