1. بكيت على لقيا أناسٍ وددتهم

    وإن كان لا ضري يعدّ ولا نفعي

    I wept for people I loved when we parted

    Though they brought me no harm, nor did I bring them benefit

  2. وإن قيل دون القلتين مكانه

    فما فيّ دون القلتين ولا دمعي

    And though it's said the one below the two hills has a place

    Within me there is nothing below the two hills, nor are there tears
