1. يا وَيليَ مِن خطب غَرامٍ حدثا

    لَو شاهَدَ وَاللَه عَدوّي لرثى

    Oh, woe is me for a calamity of love that has arisen!

    If my enemy witnessed it, by God, he would pity me.

  2. ما أَمرُ هَوايَ يا عَذولي بَدَدٌ

    لا يُخلَقُ مِثلُهُ جَمالاً عَبَثا

    My love's affair, O my reproacher, is not futile.

    One like him in beauty is not created in vain.
