1. باللَهِ يا طولَ الضنى حسبُك

    لو لكَ قلبٌ رقَّ لي قلبُك

    By God, O prolonged suffering, enough!

    Had you a heart, your heart would pity me.

  2. ما لكَ ذنبٌ أنتَ في ذا الهَوى

    إن كنتَ مأموناً فما ذنبُك

    You bear no blame in this love;

    If you are trustworthy, what fault is yours?

  3. يا فاترَ الأجفانِ ماذا الذي

    في دَنفٍ أنحلَهُ حبُّك

    O languid-eyed one, what is there

    In a lovesick man whom love for you has wasted away?

  4. آمنَهُ اللَهُ عليهِ الرضا

    وعافَهُ من سقمٍ عتبُك

    May God grant him safety; may favor rest upon him,

    And may your reproach cure him of sickness.
