زارَتْ على يأسٍ كطيفِ خيالها

يا دهرُ ما بقيتْ عليكَ ذنوبُ

She visited in despair like the light form of her imagination

O fate, no more sins remain against you

فَرَكبْتُ أخطارَ الهوى في وصلها

والطِّيبُ واشٍ والحليُّ رقيبُ

So I embarked on the perils of passion to join her

The perfume is fading and the jewelry is shackled
