وحق عينيك يا من حين غاب غدر

ما حن مذ غبت قلبي في الهوى لبشر

By your eyes' right, O you who when absent were betrayed

My heart has not been happy with love since you left

فكيف ارضاك اشمات العدو بمن

بك المحبين بالعز المشمشع سر

So how can I please you or make enemies gloat over one

Whose lovers weep for his magnificent, glittering secret?

ملأت جيبي من دمعي وكم علنا

ملت جيبك يا ريم الحمى بدرر

I filled my pockets with my tears, and how much did we

Fill your pocket, O wild deer, with pearls?
