1. لِلشَّيبِ أَرى حَبلَ هَواها اِنقضبا

    يا وَيليَ إِذا عادَ رضاها غَضَبا

    Because of gray hair, I see the cord of her love snapped.

    Woe is me when her favor turns to anger.

  2. كالتُربِ تُهنيني لِريحٍ رَكَدَت

    ناري اِنطفأت وَماءُ وَجهي نَضَبا

    She humiliates me like dust for a wind that has fallen still.

    My fire has gone out, and the water of my face has dried up.
