وَذي ثِقَةٍ تَبَدَّلَ حينَ أَثرى

وَما شِيَمي مُوافَقَةُ الثِقاتِ

And one I trusted changed when fortune smiled

It is not my way to gratify the trusted

فَقُلتُ لَهُ عَتبتَ عَلَيَّ ظُلماً

فَراراً مِن مَؤوناتِ العُداةِ

So I said, you have accused me unjustly

Fleeing from the hostility of enemies

فَعُد لِمَوَدَّتي وَعَلَيَّ نَذرٌ

سُؤالُكَ حاجَةً حَتّى المَماتِ

Return to love me; I vow

To grant whatever you request until death
