1. كلُّ صَعْبٍ على رِضاكُمْ يهونُ

    وَجُنوني بِمَنْ هَوَيتْ فُنونُ

    Every hardship becomes easy for the sake of your pleasure.

    And my madness for the one I have loved takes many forms.

  2. يَعْجَبُ الصّبْرُ من تَصَبّرِ قلبي

    واحتمالي ما رَمَقَته العيونُ

    Patience marvels at my heart’s steadfast endurance,

    And at my bearing what eyes have beheld.

  3. جَلَدِي كَلِفٌ بِتَمزيقِ جِلدي

    وَجُفوني لَدى السُّيوفِ جُفونُ

    My fortitude is enamored of tearing my skin,

    And my eyelids, before the swords, are scabbards.
