يا باخلاً عندَ الوَداعِ بوقفةٍ

لو سامني روحي بها لم أَبخلِ

O stingy one at the time of parting with a stance

If my soul charged me for it, I would not be stingy

ما كانَ ضرَّكَ لو وقفتَ لسائلٍ

تركَ الفؤادَ بدائهِ في المنزلِ

It would not have harmed you had you stopped for a beggar

Who left his heart sick in the house

هلاّ وقفتَ لقلبِ مَن أَحرْتَهُ

مقدارَ إطفاءِ الحريقِ المُشْعَلِ

Why did you not stop for the heart of one whom you burnt

As much as extinguishing the blazing fire

إنْ أَسْرِ مُرتحلاً ففي أَسْرِ الهوى

قلبي لديكَ مُقيَّداً لم يرحلِ

If you capture a wanderer, in the captivity of passion

My heart is tied to you, it did not wander

عَذُبَ العذابُ لدى فؤاِ المبتلى

إذ كنتَ أَنتَ معذِّبي والمبتلي

Sweet is the torment in the separation of the afflicted

When you were my tormentor and the afflicted
