يا لَيتَ حِبّيَ لا يَدريهِ مِن أَحدٍ

وَلا يَراهُ وَلَو قَلبي وَإِن فَطرهْ

Oh, how I wish none knew of my love

Not even my heart though it was made for him

عَليهِ قَد غِرتُ مِن خلقٍ وَلَو مَلِكاً

وَرمتُ أَن لا يَراهُ غيرَ مَن فَطَرَه

I have been fooled by creation, even an angel

And wished none would see him but his Maker
