Sol 6.1

  1. أَجرِ حَديثي وَكُن لَهُ فَطِناً

    مُستَخرِجاً هَل تَراهُ غَضبانا

    Bring up my name, and be attentive to him,

    seeking to discover whether he seems angry.

  2. وَإِحفَظ عَلَيهِ الحَديثَ مُكتَتِماً

    ثُمَّ أَعِدهُ عَلَيَّ إِعلانا

    And remember his words, keeping them secret,

    then repeat them openly to me.

  3. أَبصَرتُهُ في المَنامِ مُعتَذِراً

    إِلَيَّ مِمّا أَتاهُ يَقظانا

    I saw him in a dream, apologizing

    to me for what he had done while awake.

  4. وَلانَ حَتّى إِذا هَمَمتُ بِهِ

    أَيقَظَني ياسِرٌ فَلا كانا

    And he softened, until, just as I was about to approach him,

    Yasir woke me—may he never have existed!
