1. ربَّ حمَّامٍ تلَظّى

    كتلظي كلِّ وامقْ

    Many a bathhouse blazed,

    Like the burning of every lover,

  2. ثمّ أذرى عبراتٍ

    صَوْبُها بالوجد ناطقْ

    Then shed tears,

    Whose downpour spoke of passionate longing.

  3. فغدا منِّي ومنهُ

    عاشقٌ في جوفِ عاشقْ

    So, from me and it, there came to be

    A lover within a lover.
