فِداؤُكَ مَن يَشكُو إلى اللَّهِ نَزْلةً

ذكَرْتُ بِها ما أُنزِلَ من حَظِّي

Your ransom is he who complains to God of an affliction

I recalled through it what was sent down as my fortune

وَفي كُلِّ عُضْوٍ لي لِسَانُ شِكايَةٍ

يُحَدِّثُ بِالمَعْنى فَيُغني عنِ اللَّفظِ

And in every limb I have a tongue of complaint

That speaks of the meaning, making words unnecessary
