1. وأَحْبِسُ عنكِ النَّفْسَ والنَّفْسُ صَبَّةٌ

    بِذِكْراكِ والممشى إليكِ قريبُ

    And I hold my soul back from you, though my soul is lovesick

    at the thought of you, and the way to you is short,

  2. مخافَةَ أَنْ يَسْعى الوُشاةُ بِظِّنَّةِ

    وأَحْرسُكُمْ أن يستريبَ مُريبُ

    for fear that tale-bearers might spread suspicion,

    and I guard you all lest a doubter grow suspicious.
