Claude 2

  1. أخذت أعد أيامي

    وأنظر جاهداً خبرك

    I took to counting my days

    And looking for news of you eagerly

  2. وأسأل عنك أيامي

    فمن بالهجر قد أمرك

    And asking my days about you

    So by estrangement who has commanded you

  3. سنون قضيتها حبّا

    إلى أن يتعب الحب

    Years I spent in love

    Until love becomes exhausted

  4. فإن يكن الهوى ذنبا

    فمحبوبي هو الذنب

    If passion is a sin

    Then my beloved is that sin

  5. مليح لا أسميه

    فقد حار الهوى فيه

    A beauty I will not name

    For passion has confused me about him

  6. شربت الخمر من فيه

    فصرت أتيه في التيه

    I drank wine from his mouth

    So I lost my way in craving him

  7. وأسهر في لياليه

    مليح وجهه البدر

    And stay up through his nights

    A beauty his face like the moon

  8. وفي ألحاظه سحر

    وفي أعطافه الأمر

    And in his glances is magic

    And in his tenderness is the command

  9. بأن أهوى له الأمر

    That I passionately love him
