1. تَذَكَّرتَ هِنداً وَأَعصارَها

    وَلَم تَقضِ نَفسُكَ أَوطارَها

    You remembered Hind and her days,

    And your soul had not fulfilled its desires.

  2. تَذَكَّرَتِ النَفسُ ما قَد مَضى

    وَهاجَت عَلى العَينِ عُوّارَها

    The soul remembered what had passed,

    And stirred up the eye's aching pain,

  3. لِتَمنَحَ رامَةَ مِنّا الهَوى

    وَتَرعى لِرامَةَ أَسرارَها

    To give Ramah our love,

    And guard Ramah's secrets.

  4. إِذا لَم نَزُرها حِذارَ العِدى

    حَسَدنا عَلى الزَورِ زُوّارَها

    When we did not visit her for fear of foes,

    We envied her visitors for their visits.
