1. كَمْ لَيْلَةٍ بِتُّ لا ضَوءَ الصَّباحِ أَرى

    وَلا الخَيالَ وَلا نَوْمِي عَلَيَّ بَقِي

    How many a night I spent, seeing no light of dawn,

    Nor the dream-vision, nor did my sleep remain with me.

  2. وَلَيلَةُ الوَصْلِ لَمَّا أَنْ ظَفِرْتُ بِها

    لاحَ الصَّباحُ وَقُرصُ الشَّمْسِ فِي الأُفُقِ

    And on the night of union, when I attained it,

    Dawn appeared, and the sun's disk was on the horizon.
