يَاسَاكِنِي مَرْفَأَ الشَّوَانِي

شَوْقِيَ مِنْ بُعْدِكُمْ شَوَانِي

O dweller of the harbors of passion

My passion for you from afar impassions me

وَلاَعِجُ الشَّوْقِ قَدْ هَوَانِي

مِنْ بُعْدِكُمْ فَاقْتَضَى هَوَانِي

And my fervent longing weakened me

Your distance made me long for you intensely

كأَنَّهُ مَالِكٌ عِنَانِي

اُنْمُوذَجٌ مِنْ أَبِي عِنَانِ

As if it held my reins firmly

An example from Abi Inan

لَقَدْ كَفَانِي لَقَدْ كَفَانِي

بَاقِي ذَماً ذَاهِبٍ كَفَانِي

Indeed it sufficed me, indeed it sufficed me

The rest of my blame and loss sufficed me

مُنُّوا عَلَى الْجَوْفِ بِالأَمَانِي

فَأَنْتُمُ جُمْلَةُ الأَمَانِي

Wish in your hearts for safety

For you are all my wishes
