سلطان حسنك بحكم الجور خلّيته

على الحشا وبغاراتك توليته

Your tyrannical rule made a sultan of your beauty

You assigned it to wander the hills and caves

هجَّجت قلبي ومنهُ الصدر أخليته

حتى لحقتك ولا ادري اين خليته

You stirred my heart and emptied my chest of it

Until I reached you, not knowing where you had abandoned it
