1. لَك دار يا مَنيَتي ما بَين تِلكَ القنى

    كَم مِن مَدامع جَرَت فيها وَعادَت قنى

    You have a dwelling, O my heart’s desire, between those spears.

    How many tears flowed there and became channels!

  2. يا مَن لَهُ قَدر يَذري العَوالي القنى

    لا كانَت الناس إِن كانوا لِغَيرك قَنى

    O you whose stature scatters the lofty spears!

    May people cease to exist if they are possessions of anyone but you!
