1. ما أَحسَنَ حالَنا عَلى التَحقيقِ

    أَيّام أَمِنّا غُصَصَ التَفريقِ

    How truly lovely is our state,

    In the days when we were safe from the pangs of separation!

  2. إِن نَحنُ لطيب عَيشِنا في سَعَةٍ

    إِذ نَحنُ مِن اِعتناقنا في ضيقِ

    Indeed, through the sweetness of our life, we are in spacious ease,

    While our embrace holds us tightly confined.
