1. الحزنُ منحلٌّ ومنعَقِدُ

    لاثنين ذا باكٍ وذا كَمِدُ

    Grief is dissolved and congealed,

    For two: this one weeps, and that one grieves within.

  2. فَمُقَيِّضٌ تشقى الجفون به

    ومُفَتِّتٌ تشقى به الكبدُ

    So one cracks the eyelids, making them suffer,

    And one shatters the liver, making it suffer.

  3. ليت الذين لَحوا على شغفي

    بمعذِّبي يجدون ما أجدُ

    Would that those who reproached my passion

    For my tormentor felt what I feel.
