أفديكَ بل قلّ أن يفديك ذو دنفٍ

هل في المذلّة للمشتاق من عار

I sacrifice myself for you, no, say that one with a close soul sacrifices himself for you

Is there shame for the longing one in humiliation?

بي منك شوقٌ لو أن الصخر يحمله

تفطّر الصخر عن مستوقد النار

In me is a longing for you, if it was carried by rock

The rock would shatter from the kindled fire

قد دبّ حبّك في الأعضاء من جسدي

دبيب لفظى من روحي وإضماري

Your love crept into the limbs of my body

Creeping of my words from my soul and intimation

ولا تنفّست إلا كنت مع نفسي

وكل جارحة من خاطري جاري

And I did not breathe except you were with my breath

And every organ of mine flows from my thoughts
