وَلَقَد قالَ طَبيبي

وَطَبيبي غَيرُ آلِ

My doctor often told me

Though he was no friend of mine

أُشكُ ما شِئتَ سِوى الحُبْ

بِ فَإِنّي لا أُبالي

Doubt what you will, but never love

For I care not to repine

سَقَمُ الحُبِّ رَخيصٌ

وَدَواءُ الحُبِّ غالي

Lovesickness may come cheap

But love's remedy is dear
