يا ساكِتاً عَن كلامي لا يكلمُني

تِيهاً أَلا كلُّ فعلٍ منكَ مَبْرُورُ

O you who are silent to my words, you do not speak to me

Wandering, truly every deed from you is excused

إِذا سَكَتَّ فمنكَ الدُّرُّ مُنْتَظِمٌ

وإِنْ نَطَقْتَ فمنكَ الدُّرُّ مَنْثورُ

If you are silent, then from you arranged pearls

And if you speak, then from you scattered pearls
