1. أَهْوَى رشَأً كلّ الأَسى لي بَعَثَا

    مذ عَايَنَهُ تصبّري ما لَبِثَا

    I long for the one whose sorrow awakens all my sorrow

    Since I saw him, my patience has swiftly vanished

  2. نادَيْتُ وقد فَكّرتُ في خلقَتِهِ

    سُبحانك ما خَلقْتَ هذا عَبَثَا

    I called out, as I pondered his nature:

    "Glory be to You! You did not create this in vain."
