1. أصبحت مرآةً لحسن مثالكم

    وظهرت للرائي بنور جمالكم

    I have become a mirror to the beauty of your likeness.

    And I have appeared to the beholder in the radiance of your beauty.

  2. وبخاطري ما مرّ غير خيالكم

    يا سادتي هل يخطرنّ ببالكم

    And nothing but your image has passed through my mind.

    O my masters, do you ever think

  3. من ليس يخطر غيركم في باله

    أصبحت في العشّاق فرداً في الزمن

    of one who thinks of none but you?

    I have become peerless among lovers in this age.

  4. وببعض عشقي عشق خضراء الدمن

    وإذا غفلت بكم فلا سلوى ومن

    And love of dungheap greenery is but a fraction of my love.

    And if I grow oblivious through you, it is not forgetting you—by Him who

  5. حاشاكم أن تغفلوا عن حال من

    هو غافلٌ في حبّكم عن حاله

    has kept you above neglecting the state of one

    who, in loving you, is oblivious to his own state.
