1. أمَا لِلمُحِبِّينَ مِنْ حَاكِمِ

    فَينُصِفُنِي اليومَ مِنْ ظَالِمي

    Is there no judge for lovers

    to grant me justice today against my oppressor?

  2. حِمَاميَ في طَرْفِهِ كَامِنٌ

    كُمُونَ المَنِيَّةِ في الصَّارِمِ

    My death lurks in his gaze,

    as death lurks in the keen-edged sword.
