يا مقلتيَّ قتلتماني

فبقِيتُ رَحمة من يراني

My eyes, you have slain me

So I remain a mercy to him who sees me

مَن ذا ألومُ وأنتُما

بيَدِ الهَوى سَلَّمتُماني

Whom shall I blame, when you both

Have delivered me into the hands of passion?

لعِبَت بنا أيدي الخُطو

بِ وغالنا رَيبُ الزمانِ

The turns of fate have toyed with us

And the caprices of time have undone us
