لي مولى أقسى البرية قد قا

سيت فيه الهموم والأشواقا

I have a beloved, the harshest of wilds

In him I confide my worries and longings

قلت اذ لج في جفائي واحتج م

عليه فساق نحوي السياقا

I said, as he was harsh to me, and argued

Against him, so he led the course to me

ايهذا المليك رأيك في سو

ء امتلاكي فلن اروم الفراقا

O this king, your view of my

Poor possession, I shall not seek separation
