قيلَ لي صِحْتَ لسُكْرٍ
قلتُ إِنْ صِحْتُ صَحَوْتُ
They said to me, “You are awake from drunkenness”
I said, “If I am awake, I am sober”
طابَ لي في الحُبِّ موتي
ووُجودي إِذْ مَحَوْتُ
My death in love was sweet to me
And my existence, when I erased it
قيلَ لي صِحْتَ لسُكْرٍ

I said, “If I am awake, I am sober”
