1. عودي عودي فَإِنَّما وَعدُكِ دين

    والأَعيُنُ قَرَّت بِكِ لا نابكِ عَين

    Return, return, for your promise is nothing but a debt.

    And the eyes have found delight in you; may no evil eye befall you.

  2. أَغرقتِ وَما أَصَبتِ في قَوسِ البَين

    عَهدي وَذِمامي وَمواثيقُكِ أَين

    You drew the bow of parting to its limit, yet missed the mark.

    Where are my covenant, my bond of honor, and your solemn pledges?
