1. قَد حانَ مِنكِ فَلا تَبعُد بِكِ الدارُ

    بَينٌ وَفي البَينِ لِلمَتبولِ إِضرارُ

    Now draws near, from you—may your home not take you far away—

    a parting; and in parting lies harm for the lovesick.

  2. قالَت مَنَ نتَ عَلى ذِكرٍ فَقُلتُ لَها

    أَنا الَّذي ساقَني لِلحَينِ مِقدارُ

    She said, “Who are you?” though she remembered me, and I said to her,

    “I am the one whom fate has driven to doom.”
