أَنا الهائِمُ الصَبُّ الَّذي قادَهُ الهَوى

إِلَيكِ فَأَمسى في حِبالِكِ مُسلِما

I am the lost one led by passion to you,

So I became a captive in your ropes.

بَرَتهُ دَواعي الحُبِّ حَتّى تَرَكنَهُ

سَقيماً وَلَم يَترُكنَ لَحماً وَلا دَما

The urgings of love nurtured him until they left him

Sick, with neither flesh nor blood remaining.
