أَقولُ ليوسفٍ والمطل ظلمٌ
أما لي حصَّةٌ في ماءِ وَرْدِكْ
I say to Yusuf—and delay is an injustice:
I love you, Joseph, though the night is dark
Have I no share in your rosewater?
Do I not share the water of your rose?
وإنَّك قَدْ وعدت به فقل لي
متى يا سيِّدي إنجازُ وَعْدِكْ
You did indeed promise it, so tell me:
You promised me its nectar, please declare
When, my lord, will you fulfill your promise?
My lord, when will your plighted word be sown?
Sol 5.6
