1. تقسَّم قَلبي في هواهُ فعندهَهُ

    فَريقٌ وعندي شُعبَةٌ وفَريقُ

    My heart split in its love for him; with him is

    A portion, and with me a fragment and a portion.

  2. إذا ظمِئَتْ رُوحي أقولُ لهُ اسقِني

    فإنْ لم يكُنْ خَمرٌ لديْكَ فَرِيقُ

    When my soul thirsts, I say to him: Give me a drink;

    And if you have no wine, then saliva.
