My worn-out body has not grown ill from my love for you,
My worn out body did not spare loving you,
O health of my body and delight of my mind.
O wellbeing of my body and comfort of mind,
بلrather حبّكlove for you صحتيmy health ولكنand yet غرضيmy aim
بل حبّك صحتي ولكن غرضي

Rather, love for you is my health, but my aim
But your love is my health, and yet my intention
In my illness is to remain hidden from the reproachers.
In my illness is to hide it from the blamers
