1. يا آمري بالصبر عمن شفني

    سقماً وفي فيه شفاءُ غليلي

    O you who order me to be patient with one who cured me

    When I was sick, and in him was the remedy for my suffering,

  2. من يستطيع الصبر أو يرضى به

    عن مثل هذا المرشف المعسولِ

    Who can have patience, or be content with it

    In the face of such a gentle, sweet confidant?
