يا مَن بِهِ قَد خَسِرتُ آخِرَتي

لا تُفسِدَن بِالصُدودِ دُنيائي

O you for whom I have lost my afterlife

Do not spoil my worldly life with estrangement

أَهُمُّ بِالصَبرِ حينَ يُسرِفُ في

هَجرِيَ وَالصَبرُ نازِحٌ نائي

I try to be patient when you are excessive in

Your abandonment of me, but patience has fled far away

حَتّى إِذا ما رَأَيتُ طَلعَتَهُ

غَيَّرَني ما رَأَيتُ عَن راءِ

Until when I saw your face

What I saw changed me from my opinion
