خَلِيلىَّ زُورا بِي أُمَيمَةَ فاجلُوَا

بِها بَصَرِى أو غَمرةً مِن فُؤَادِيا

My friends, visit Umaymah and bid her farewell

Let my eyes feast on her or tears of my heart flow

فَقَد طالَ هِجرَانِي أُمَيمَةَ أَبتَغِي

رِضَى النَّاسِ لا أَلقَى مِنَ النّاسِ راضِيَا

For too long has she shunned me, I seek to please

Not people's contentment but my own wishes
