خَلِّ الصبابة تسري في خليقتهِ
والحب من سره لطف وتذليلُ
Let ardent longing course through his very nature;
among love’s mysteries are gentleness and humbling.
لعل سكرته في الحب تجذبُهُ
إلى وصالك يوماً وهو مذهولُ
Perhaps his intoxication with love will draw him
to union with you one day, while he is in a daze.
فاصبر عليه وخل الحب ينحله
جرح بجرح وما في الحب تبديلُ
So be patient with him, and let love deal him
wound for wound—for in love there is no substitution.
