1. قالوا انتهِ عنه إِنَّه ما صَدَقا

    ما أَجهلَ مَن بِوَعدِه قَد وَثِقا

    They said, “Give him up—he has not been true.”

    How ignorant is one who has trusted his promise!

  2. لا لا فَنتيجةُ الهَوى صادقةٌ

    مَع كِذب مقدّماتِ وَعدٍ سَبَقا

    No, no—the conclusion drawn by love is true,

    despite the falsity of a promise’s premises that came before.
