ما عالَجَ الناسُ مِثلَ الحُبِّ مِن سَقَمٍ

وَلا بَرى مِثلُهُ عَظماً وَلا جَسَدا

No cure is likened to love for man's diseases,

Nor any body, nor limbs compared with his huge frame.

ما يَلبَثُ الحُبُّ أَن تَبدو شَواهِدُهُ

مِن المُحِبِّ وَإِن لَم يُبدِهِ أَبَدا

The signs of love are soon apparent in lovers

Though love is never openly expressed by them.
