يا فَارِغاً قَدْ أَطالَ شُغْلِي

كُلَّكَ يَهْوى هَواهُ كُلِّي

O vacant one, though my work has wearied me

Each part of me loves its counterpart in you

إِذا تَكَرَّهْتَنِي مُحِبّاً

فَدُلَّ قَلْبي عَلَى التَّسَلِّي

If you grow tired of my love

Guide my heart toward consolation

بِما بِقَلْبي عَلَيْكَ جُدْ لِي

بِهَجْرِ هَجْرِي وَوَصْلِ وَصْلِي

With what is in my heart for you, be earnest

With my estrangement and union, my separation and communion
