1. تُؤنِسُني الوَحدَةُ في خَلوَتي

    وَهَذِهِ مِن صِفَةِ العالِمِ

    Solitude keeps me company in my seclusion,

    and this is a trait of the scholar.

  2. مَن يَكُ بِالعالَمِ مُستَأنِساً

    فَإِنَّني مِنِّيَ في عالَمِ

    Whoever finds companionship in the world—

    I, for my part, dwell in a world of my own.
