قاطَعتَ جارك وَاتبعتَ هَواكا

وَأَضلك الشَيطان بَعدَ هُداكا

You broke with your neighbor and followed your whim,

And Satan pleased you after you had been guided.

وَهجرتني وَنقضت حبل مودّتي

وَبِذاكَ لي شَهدت شُهود قِلاكا

You deserted me and broke the cord of my affection;

Thus, before me, the legions of your aversion bore witness.

فَلأرحلن عَنكَ ساخِطاً

إِن كانَ في هَذا الرَحيل رضاكا

So I shall surely depart from you, indignant,

If in this departure lies your contentment.
