How can my sight and hearing be concealed from me

وكيف يخف لي بصري وسمعي

1. How can my sight and hearing be concealed from me
When around me are two hosts of burdensome men,

١. وَكَيفَ يَخِفُّ لي بَصَري وَسَمعي
وَحَولي عَسكَرانِ مِن الثِقالِ

2. Sitting around my household, and with me,
As if they had some rightful claim upon me.

٢. قُعوداً حَولَ دَسكَرَتي وَعِندي
كَأَنَّ لَهُم عَلَيَّ فُضولَ مالِ

3. Whenever I please, the crescent moon salutes me,
Yet which of men is more burdensome than the crescent?

٣. إِذا ما شِئتُ صَبَّحَني هِلالٌ
وَأَيٌّ الناسِ أَثقَلُ مِن هِلالِ
