لاَ نَاقَةٌ ليَ فِي صَبْرِي وَلاَ جَمَلُ

مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا ظَعَنَ اْلأَحْبَابُ وَاحْتَمَلُوا

I have no patience nor endurance

After companions have departed and borne sorrows

قَالُوا اسْتَقَلُّوا بِعَيْنِ الْفِطْرِ قُلْتُ لَهُمْ

مَا عَرَّسُوا بِسِوَى قَلْبِي وَلاَ نَزَلُوا

They said, “We saw with our own eyes the breaking of the fast”

I said to them, “You have not tasted my heart, nor taken lodging there”
