1. يا صاحِبي فيما يَنو

    بُ وَأَينَ أَينَ هُناكَ صَحبي

    O my friend in whatever befalls,

    and where, where are my companions then?

  2. لَو كُنتُ لَم أَعرِفُ سِوا

    كَ مِنَ الأَنامِ لَكانَ حَسبي

    If I had known none other than

    you among humankind, that would have sufficed me.

  3. إِنّي اِدَّخَرتُكَ لِلزَما

    نِ وَما عَرا مِن كُلِّ خَطبِ

    Indeed, I have kept you in reserve against time

    and whatever grave calamity befalls.

  4. يا نازِحاً يُرضيهِ مِن

    ني الوُدَّ في بُعدٍ وَقُربِ

    O distant one, who is pleased by

    my affection, whether far or near,

  5. قَلبي لَدَيكَ فَكَيفَ أَن

    تَ عَلى البِعادِ وَكَيفَ قَلبي

    My heart is with you; so how are

    you in separation, and how is my heart?
