يا رفيقي في الخيالِ
وعَذيري في الضَلالِ
O my companion in imagination,
and the one who excuses me in my straying,
وزيلي في هُيامي
حولَ أخدارِ المُحالِ
my comrade in my rapture,
around the curtained chambers of the impossible—
سر بنا نطلب فِكراً
لم يجُل قطُّ ببالِ
come, let us seek a thought
that has never once crossed a mind;
واترُك الناسَ يَهيمونَ
بمالٍ ومآلِ
and leave the people to wander, lovestruck,
after wealth and destiny.
Sol 5.6
