1. Some people wish my ruin, yet my ruin eludes them,
While I remain downcast in fate and barren in mind.
١. يَوَدُّ أُنَاسٌ خَُيَِّبُوا هُمُ خَيْبَتِي
وَأَنِّيَ دَهْرِي كَاسِفُ الْبَالِ مُجْدِبُ
2. Some people desire my well-being, yet their well-wishing grants me no safety,
While I remain at ease in fate and fertile in spirit.
٢. وَيَهْوَى أُنَاسٌ سَُلَِّمُوا هُمْ سَلاَمَتِي
وَأَنِّيَ دَهْرِي نَاعِمُ الْبَالِ مُخْصِبُ
