And I turn away from my opinion that I used to think, and forget what I said, and then it disappears.

And my heart shows her excuse and helps her, so I have no share in the heart

I have taught myself the place of her recovery soon, and whether what cannot be attained is near.

I swear by the knees of those who bow before their Lord in humility, and above those who kneel there is a watcher

If the cold water is thirsty, it will turn to me for a lover, it is for a lover

And I said to the soothsayer of Yamamah, Downey, for if you cure me, I will go to a physician.

I have no sickness, no kind of heaven, but my al-Himyari uncle is a liar.

I do not see the sun unless I remember it, and I have a share of your desires

Desires are not mentioned without mentioning them, and miserliness is not mentioned without saying: You will be rewarded.

And the last of my vows is from 'Afira, that it bears fruit trees, all of them fertile.

On the eve, I do not fulfill a need for myself, and I did not know if I was called how to answer

In the evening, there is no deception behind me, nor passion in front of me, nor does a stranger follow my desires.

Build us from the depths of sorrows in the chest, the breath of compassion almost melts

But as long as there is a saying hashshah on what has a oud there is a cross

I am not surprised at the death of lovers in passion, but the survival of lovers is strange.
