تقولين ما في الناس مثلك عاشقٌ

تقولين ما في الناس مثلك عاشقٌ

صدقت فما بعدي محبٌّ ولا قبلي

صدقت فما بعدي محبٌّ ولا قبلي

You say, “Among people, there is no lover like you.”

You say that among people there is no one like you, a lover

You speak truly: there is no lover after me, nor before me.

You spoke truly, for after me there is no lover, nor before me

أنا مفردٌ في الحب همت بمفردٍ

أنا مفردٌ في الحب همت بمفردٍ

جدي مثل من أحببته تجدي مثلي

جدي مثل من أحببته تجدي مثلي

I am peerless in love, enamored of a peerless one.

I stand alone in love, I care for no one

Find the like of the one I loved, and you will find my like.

Look for one like those I have loved, you will find no one like me
