يَشكو حُرَق الغَرام وَالمكثُ قَليل
In the sky, lightning is a sign of my agitation.
The lightning in the air betrays my turmoil
It laments the burning pains of love, and its stay is brief.
It complains of the burns of passion though its stay is brief
هَذاكthat لِسانيmy tongue يَتَلَظّىblazes ناراًwith fire
هَذاك لِساني يَتَلَظّى ناراً
فيin وَصفِdescribing صَبابَتيmy ardent longing اِنثَنىdrew back وَهوَwhile it is كَليلweary
في وَصفِ صَبابَتي اِنثَنى وَهوَ كَليل
That is my tongue, blazing with fire.
That is my tongue blazing fire
In describing my ardent longing, it drew back, weary.
As it tries to describe my agony, it falters and grows weary
