وَلي خِدَمٌ سَطَّرْتُها قَبَل هذهِ

وَلَمْ يَأْتِ عَنها بالجَوابِ مُشَرِّفُ

I have servants I appointed before this one

Yet no honorable reply did they bring

فَكُنْ ذاكِرِي بالغَيْبِ فيمن ذَكرتَهُ

فَلي عِندَكَ العين الذي ليس تَطرِفُ

So remember me in absentia amongst those you remember

For you are to me an eye that does not look away
