جَنى وتَجَنَّى وَالفُؤادُ يُطِيعُهُ

جَنى وتَجَنَّى وَالفُؤادُ يُطِيعُهُ

فَلا ذَاقَ مَنْ يُجْنَى عليه كما يَجْنِي

فَلا ذَاقَ مَنْ يُجْنَى عليه كما يَجْنِي

He did wrong and laid false blame, yet the heart obeys him.

He reaps and enjoys the fruits, while his heart obeys him.

So may no one wronged taste such wrong as he inflicts.

So none truly knows the pain of being wronged as the one doing wrong.

فَإِنْ لَم يَكُن عِندي كَعَيني وَمَسمَعي

فَإِنْ لَم يَكُن عِندي كَعَيني وَمَسمَعي

فَلا نَظَرت عَيني وَلا سَمِعَت أذُني

فَلا نَظَرت عَيني وَلا سَمِعَت أذُني

For if he is not to me as my eye and my hearing,

For if he is not as dear to me as my eyes and ears,

then may my eye never see, nor my ear hear.

Then my eyes have not seen, nor my ears heard.
