Claude 2

  1. مَن أنتَ مِن مُضرِ الحَمراءِ واليَمنِ

    وما جُفُونكَ في الخَطِّية اللُّدُنِ

    Who are you from the red Mudar and Yemen

    And why do your eyelids not tire of sin

  2. فلَم أكُن أرهبُ الحيَّينِ قاطِبةً

    وقَد رأيتُكَ تَلقاني وترهَبُني

    I never feared the living altogether

    Yet I see you meet me and I fear you

  3. وَلَيسَ عَينُك عن قَتلي بنائِمةٍ

    فأينَ ما سَلَبتنيهِ من الوسَنِ

    Your eyes do not sleep from killing me

    So where did you rob me of my youth

  4. مَلكت فاستَوصِ خَيراً إنَّها كبدٌ

    وربَّما غَلُظَت إن أنتَ لم تَلنِ

    You have possessed so advise good for it is a liver

    And perhaps it hardened if you do not soften

  5. وطالَما سِرتُ والغَيداءُ في شَرفٍ

    تَقولُ ما قلتُ والوَرقاءُ في الفَنَنِ

    And often I walked while the young woman was virtuous

    She says what I said and the paper is in the arts

  6. خَلَت بكلِّ فؤادٍ حَولَها وبكَت

    فأودَعَته الجَوى فيما يودِّعُني

    She confided in every heart around her and cried

    So she entrusted it to passion in what bids me farewell

  7. وإنَّني لَقريبُ الدارِ أسمَعُها

    ومَا يُجاوزُ ما تأتي به أُذُني

    And I am close to the house I hear it

    And nothing exceeds what my ear comes to me

  8. قَساوَة لَيتها لي أن تعارضني

    أحمِي بها مِنك مَرعَى القلب والبَدنِ

    Hardness I wish it to me to confront me

    I protect with it the pasture of the heart and the body

  9. وربَّ كأسٍ من الخُرطُومِ قمتُ بِها

    على الهمُومِ مَقاماً غيرَ مُؤتَمَنِ

    And the lord of a cup from the elephant I stood with it

    Over anxieties in a place that is not entrusted

  10. صَفراءَ لكنَّها بِيضٌ شَمائِلُها

    كأنَّما سَرَقَتها مِن بَني حَسَنِ

    Yellow but its features

    As if she stole it from the children of Hassan

  11. النَّازِلينَ على حُكمِ العُفاةِ وإن

    عَزَّوا ولم يَقبَلوا حُكماً من الزَّمَنِ

    The descending on the rule of the chaste and if

    They refused and did not accept a rule from time

  12. والقائِمينَ بِما كانَت تقومُ به

    آباؤُهم من حقُوقِ المَجدِ والمِنَنِ

    And those who stand by what

    Their fathers stood by the rights of glory and grace

  13. أمسَت تهونُ عليهم مَن تعزُّ على

    سِواهُمُ أنفسٌ عزَّت فلم تَهُنِ

    In the evening they despised those who were dear to

    Others selves that were valued and did not despise

  14. فأصبحَ القَومُ لا عِرضٌ بمُبتَذَلٍ

    يُخشَى عليه ولا مالٌ بمُختَزَنِ

    So the people became without a reputation with the worthless

    Feared upon and no money with hoarded
