صَدَدتَ فَكُنتَ مَليحَ الصُّدُودِ

وأعرَضتَ أفدِيكَ مِن مُعرِضِ

You turned away, yet you looked graceful when turning,

I sacrifice myself for you against all rejecters,

وفي حالةِ السُّخطِ لا في الرِّضا

يَبينُ المحبُّ من المُبغِضِ

It's in anger, not in joy, that the lover

Is distinguished from the hater,

ومَن كانَ في سُخطِهِ مُحسِناً

فكيفَ يكونُ إذا ما رَضِي

And he who does good even when angry,

How would he be if he became pleased?
