خَلِيلِي بَل أَجَلُّ فَأَنتَ عِندِي

مِنَ السَّادَاتِ لَستَ مِنَ الصِّحَابِ

My friend indeed you are dearer than most

To me amongst all the nobles, not a companion

نِدَاءٌ لَستُ أَبعَثُهُ إِلَى مَن

عَدَاكَ فَأَرتَجِي صِدقَ الجَوَابِ

A call this is not for those other than you

So I wait in hope for an answer true
