1. جَفْنِي بِكُمْ مَنامُهُ طَلَّقَهُ

    كَمْ أَرْفُو فُؤاداً هَجْرُكُمْ مَزَّقَهُ

    Because of you, sleep has divorced my eyelid.

    How often I mend a heart your abandonment has torn apart!

  2. يَا مَنْ هَجَرُوا طَرْفِي مُحِبُّوه كَرىً

    باللَّه عَسَى الخَيالُ أَنْ يَطْرُقَهُ

    O you who have forsaken me—my eye's lovers are slumber—

    By God, may the phantom visit it by night.
