وضعت سلاح الصبر عنه فما له

يقاتل بالألحاظ من لا يقاتله

I have laid down the weapon of patience against him, yet he

Fights with glances one who does not fight him,

وسال عذار حول خديه جائر

على مهجتي فليتق الله سائله

And sheds copious tears around his cheeks,

Flooding my innermost heart - so may the questioner fear God!
