أَوَلَيسَ مِن إِحدى العَجائِبِ أَنَّني

فَارَقتُهُ فَحَيَّيتُ بَعدَ فِراقِهِ

Is it not one of the wonders that I

Parted from him, yet lived after parting?

يا مَن يُحاكى البَدرَ عِندَ تَمامِهِ

اِرحَم فَتىً يَحكِيه عِندَ مَحاقِهِ

O he who rivals the full moon in splendor,

Have mercy on one who recalls him in ruin.
