1. Arise, my regret, to encompassment,
You have slept away your long night.
١. قُم يا نَدَمي إِلى الشُمولِ
قَد نِمتَ عَن لَيلِكَ الطَويلِ
2. Do you not see the star has shone forth
And Aldebaran thoughts of setting?
٢. أَما تَرى النَجمَ قَد تَبَدّى
وَهَمَّ بِهَرامُ بِالأَفولِ
3. You were hot-tongued in time past:
Now I am become of speech so slight.
٣. قَد كُنتَ عَضِبَ الِسانِ عَهدي
فَرُحتُ ذا مِنطِقٍ كَليلِ
4. He who denied rest, you struck him dumb,
Nor answered the questioning of the asker.
٤. مَن عاقَرَ الراحَ أَخرَستَهُ
وَلَم يُجِب مَنطِقَ السَؤولِ
