1. يا نازِحاً حَكَمَت عَل

    يَ بِبُعدِهِ نُوَبُ الزَّمانِ

    O distant one, imposed upon

    me by time’s vicissitudes was his remoteness.

  2. مَن لي بِقُربِ الدّارِ مِن

    كَ وَلا أَراكَ وَلا تَراني

    Who will grant me a dwelling close to

    you, though I neither see you nor you see me?

  3. ما كُنتُ أَحسَبُ أَنَّني

    أَرضى بِهَجرِكَ في الأَماني

    I never thought that I

    would accept your estrangement even in my wishes.
