1. بَينَ الضُلوعِ جَهَنَّمٌ مِن حُبِّهِم

    وَوَدِدتُهُم لَو يَسمَعونَ حَسيسَها

    Between my ribs is a hell born of love for them.

    And I wished they could hear its faint sound.

  2. فَمَعَ الظَلامِ الدَمعُ كانَ طَليقَها

    وَمَعَ الصَباحِ الهَمُّ كانَ حَبيسَها

    So in the darkness, tears were its freed captive,

    And in the morning, sorrow was its prisoner.
