بَلِيتُ لأَنَّني بكَ قَدْ بُلِيتُ

فَلَسْتُ بِمُنْتَهٍ مِمَّا نُهيتُ

I have suffered because I suffered for your sake

Yet I cannot desist from what I was forbidden

أُلامُ وقَدْ أَصَمَّ الحُبُّ سَمْعِي

وَيُرْشِدُني العَذُولُ وقَدْ عَمِيتُ

Suffering, for love has deafened my hearing

And the censurers guide me though I am blind

وَأَنْحَلَني فَلَو إِنْسانُ عَيني

تَضَمَّنَ جَفنُهُ جِسْمِي خَفِيتُ

My eyes have melted me, oh would that

Their lids encompassed my body unseen
