ما لي بِلَوعَةٍ ذا الغَزال أَهيم

وَالجِسم مِنّي ناحِل وَسَقيم

Why I am stricken with grief for the gazelle am I restless

While my body is lean and unwell

اِنَّ العَذابَ بِمُهجَتي لَأَليم

وَاللَه بِالقَلبِ الخَفوقِ عَليم

Indeed, the agony within my soul is so painful

And Allah knows well the fluttering heart
