1. بين الشغافِ أحسِّكُمْ  أغرودةً

    تهمي ، تهشُّ لها الجوانحُ والخواطرْ

    In the folds of my heart, I feel you as a song,

    Pouring forth, as heart and thoughts rejoice in it.

  2. وتُعَشِّشُونَ قصائدًا نشوى ،  لها

    فوقَ الضُّلوعِ الوالهاتِ بكم منابرْ

    And you nest as rapturous poems, which have

    Pulpits above the ribs that yearn for you.

  3. قولوا : بربكمُ أأنسى خفقةً

    لرفيفها تهفو المسامعُ  والنواظرْ

    Tell me, by your Lord: could I forget a heartbeat

    Whose flutter ears and eyes long for?

  4. العيدُ أقبل فاستفاقتْ فجأةً

    أطيافُكم لأزفَّ نحوكمُ البشائرْ

    Eid has come, and suddenly there awoke

    Visions of you, that I might bring you glad tidings,

  5. مهما تثاءبت المسافةُ بيننا

    ويدُ الحياةِ طغتْ وأسدلت  السَّتائِرْ

    However wide the distance yawns between us,

    And life’s hand grows tyrannical and draws the curtains.
