اتركْ بحقِكَ ما يقولُ المبغضُ

أنا قدْ رضيتُ الموتَ فيهم إنْ رضوا

Leave be what the hater says of your right

I have accepted death among them if they accept

همْ نورُ عيني والسوادُ لناظري

فإذا سلوتهمُ بمنْ أتعوَّضُ

They are the light of my eye and the darkness for my onlooker

So if I asked them with whom I could be consoled

بانوا فبانَ الصبرُ عنْ باناتِهِ

وقرينَ سهدي قبضوا مذْ قوّضوا

They appeared so patience was unveiled from its veilings

And my bosom friend they captured when they shook it

كم خلَّفوا متطلِّعاً بطويلعٍ

وبرامةٍ كم من صحيحٍ أمرضوا

How much yearning they left in the yearner

And how many a sound they made ill

أنا قدْ رضيتُ بأنْ أموتَ بحبِّهم

كمداً فلا يتعرَّضِ المتعرِّضُ

I have accepted to die loving them

Suppressed so the intruder cannot intrude
