1. يا مانِحي مَحضَ الوُعودِ وَمانِعي

    حِفظَ العُهودِ وَمُجتَنى مَعروفِهِ

    O you who grant me mere promises and deny me

    The honoring of pledges and the fruits of his kindness.

  2. لي كُلَّ يَومٍ مِنكَ عُذرٌ واضِحٌ

    وَأَخافُ أَن يُقضي إِلى تَصحيفِهِ

    Every day I have a clear excuse from you,

    And I fear it may lead to its letters being mispointed.
