Claude 2

  1. أَلا في سَبيلِ اللَهِ ما حَلَّ بي مِنكَ

    وَأَنتَ لَفي حِلٍّ بِما شِئتَ مِن فَتكِ

    Alas! For the cause of God, what has befallen me from you

    While you are at ease with whatever you wish of separation

  2. وَما الصَعبُ إِلّا حُبُّكَ الصَدُّ وَالجَفا

    وَصَبَّرَكَ عَنّي حَيثُ لا صَبرَ لي عَنكِ

    And nothing is difficult except your love, your disdain and aloofness

    And your patience with me, when I have no patience without you

  3. وَتَرَكَكَ جِسمي بَعدَ مُهجَتي

    حَرامٌ إِذا ما كُنتُ عَبدَكَ بِالمُلكِ

    And my body has left me after my torment

    It is forbidden, if I was your servant with the kingdom

  4. وَمِن سوءِ حَظّي تَركُهُ بَعدَ ذا القَلا

    ضَئيلاً فَهَلّا كانَ مِن قَبلُ ذا التُركِ

    And from my misfortune, it left me after this emaciation

    If only it had left before this abandonment

  5. فَهَل حاكَمَ في الحُبُّ يَحكُمُ بَينَنا

    إِذا ماسَ مِنكَ القَدُّ لَم يَرُم بِالشَكِّ

    Is there an arbiter in love to judge between us

    When old age takes its toll, he does not doubt

  6. يَقومُ لَهُ دَمعي بِإِثباتِ ما جَرى

    وَيَأخُذُ لي حَقّي وَيُنصِفَني مِنكِ

    My tears testify what has happened

    And take my right for me and do me justice from you
