لا تَنكرِي صَمْتي فَإنَّ الذي

قَارَبَ وِرْدَ المَوْتِ كالمَيّتِ

Do not deny my silence, for he who

Has come close to death's rose, is like the dead.

مُذْ أُسْرِجَ الأَشُهَبُ يَا هذهِ

مِن لِمَّتي أُلجُمتُ عَن حُجَّتي

Since the gray one was saddled, O this one,

I have been silenced by my affliction from my argument.
