1. Indeed I wrote to you when my passion grew intense,
And my longing for you increased, and yearning grew,
١. وَلَقَدْ كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْكَ لَمَّا جَدَّ بي
وَجْدِي عَلَيْكَ وَزَادَتِ الأَشْوَاقُ
2. I complained of the torment of love and its pain,
The meadows wept, and the leaves turned yellow and fell.
٢. وَشكَوْتُ ما أَلقاهُ مِنْ أَلمِ الجَوَى
فَبَكى اليَراعُ وَرَقَّتِ الأَوْرَاقُ
