تُهَدّدني بِهِجْرانٍ وَبُعْدٍ

مَتَى كانَ اجْتماعٌ والتِئامُ

You threaten me with estrangement and distance

When did we ever come together and unite

إِذَا أَنا لا أَراكَ وأَنْتَ جَارٌ

فَسيَّانَ التَّرحُّلُ وَالمقامُ

If I cannot see you yet you are my neighbor

Then residing or leaving would be the same
