1. لمّا جَنى الطرفُ وردَ وجنتِهِ

    عذَّب قَلبي بنارِ هجرانِ

    When the eye plucked the rose of his cheek,

    he tormented my heart with the fire of estrangement.

  2. فَقُلتُ قد جرتَ يا فديتُك بي

    عذَّبتَ قَلبي وطرفيَ الجاني

    So I said, “You have wronged me, O you for whom I would give my life:

    you tormented my heart, though my eye was the culprit.”
