1. مَن ذا لِمُتيَّمٍ معنّىُ يُقصى

    مِن دونِ مُناهُ حجُبٌ لا تُحصى

    Who is there for a tormented, love-stricken man kept away?

    Countless veils stand between him and his desires.

  2. لَو مَكَّنَهُ الحَبيبُ من نَظرَتِهِ

    مِن خيفة مَن يبصره ما اِستَقصى

    If the beloved allowed him a glance,

    For fear of someone seeing him, he would not look his fill.
