فديْتكَ جارَ عليَّ الفِراقْ

وحمّلني العِشقُ ما لا يُطاقْ

I ransom you, neighbor, although separation weighs heavily upon me,

And love has burdened me with more than I can bear,

وأحرقتَ قلبي وقد كنتَ فيهِ

فكيفَ سلمتَ من الإحتراق

You set my heart aflame though you were within it,

How then did you escape from being consumed?
