1. لُبُّ العاني بِصَدِّهِ بَلْبَلَهُ

    وَالقَلْبُ بِنارِ هَجْرِهِ أَشْعَلَهُ

    He bewildered the captive’s mind by his turning away.

    And set the heart ablaze with the fire of his estrangement.

  2. إِن أَنْكَرَ وَجْدِي وَعَنَا القَلْبُ بِهِ

    هَا دَمْعيَ سائِلٌ لِكَيْ يَسأَلَهُ

    If he denies my passion, while my heart suffers because of him,

    Behold my tears, flowing so they may question him.
