بِحقِّكَ لا تَهْجُرْ فَهَجْرُكَ قَاتِلٌ

وَإِنّي مِنْ جَوْرِ النَّوى بِكَ عَائِذُ

By Your right abandon me not, for Your abandonment is death

Though I seek refuge in You from the tyranny of time

وَكَنْزُ اصْطِبارِي عِنْدَ فَقْدِكَ نافِذٌ

كما أنَّ سَهْمَ اللَّحْظِ فِي القَلْبِ نافِذُ

My treasured patience at Your loss expires

As the arrow of a glance pierced my heart
