1. أفرطتَ في اللومِ يا عذولُ

    ليسَ إلى سلوةٍ سبيلُ

    You have gone too far in reproach, O faultfinder.

    There is no path to solace.

  2. كيفَ ولا يفقدُ التصابي

    قلبي ولا يبردُ الغليلُ

    How, when youthful dalliance never leaves

    my heart, nor does the burning thirst cool?

  3. تلومُ فمن هواهُ ديني

    وكلُّ وجدٍ له قليلُ

    You reproach me, yet my faith comes from his love,

    and every longing for him is but little.

  4. في كل يومٍ لوجنتيهِ

    ولحظِ أجفانهِ قتيلُ

    Each day, his two cheeks

    and the glance of his eyelids claim a victim.
