وغصن غدا إنشاهُ من نهر أدمُعي
ومنشا الهوى من ثغره نهرُ كرثر
And a bough whose growth came from the river of my tears;
and the source of delight from his mouth is a river of Kawthar.
فما الدّمع إلا جفعرٌ من غرامه
وما هو في الأغصان إلا ابنُ جعفر
For my tears are but a Ja‘far—a river—born of love for him;
and among the boughs he is none but Ibn Ja‘far.
Sol 5.6
