1. My eyelids would not soften for any winkers
But dawn and dusk have made them gentle
١. كانت قناتي لا تلين لغامزٍ
فألأنَها الاصباح والامساءُ
2. And I called on my Lord desperately for wellbeing
That He may heal me, yet wellbeing itself is the illness
٢. ودعوتُ ربي بالسلامة جاهداً
ليُصحَني فاذا السلامةُ داءُ
