لقد عذَّبَتْني بالغرامِ مليحةٌ

وغَالِبُ ظَنِّي أَن يَكُونَ لِزَاما

The lovely one has tormented me with love,

And my firm belief is that binding will prevail.

وبرهانُ ما قد قلت أَن عذَابها

كما جاءَ في القرآن كَانَ غَرَما

Proof of what I have said is that her torment

Came, as stated in the Quran, out of deep passion.
