في قربك جَنَّةٌ وَفي بعدك نار

في بَذلِكَ عِزَّةٌ وَفي مَنعِكَ عار

In your nearness is paradise, and in your distance is fire

In your generosity is honor, and in your refusal is shame

أَصداغك وَالوَجنَةُ لَيلٌ وَنَهار

ما بَينَهُما الدَهرَ يُضاعُ الأَعمار

Your temples and cheeks are night and day

Between them time is wasted away
