أما آنَ للهجرانِ أن يُعقِبَ الوَصلا
وللحبِّ أن يُمشى حكومَته عَدلا
Is it not time for estrangement to give way to union,
and for love’s rule to be conducted with justice?
لقَد طالَ جَورُ الحبِّ في الحكمِ واعتدَى
عَلى أَهلهِ حتَّى أبادَهمُ قَتلا
Long has love’s tyranny endured in its rule and transgressed
against its own people, until it utterly destroyed them.
