ولما بدا لي أنها لا تحبني * وأن هواها ليس عني بمنجل تمنيت أن تهوى سوايَ لعلها * تذوق صبابات الهوى فترق لي وما كان إلا عن قليلٍ وأشغفت * بحب غزال أدعج الطرف أكحلِ فعذبها حتى أذاب فؤادها * وذوقها طعم الهوى والتدللِ فقلت لها هذا بذاك فأطرقت * حياءً وقالت كل ظالم مبتلي ! علي عبدالله جعفر And when it became apparent to me that she will not reciprocate my love And that her love will never leave me be I wished that she would fall in love so that she may experience its longings and empathize with me And it wasn’t long afterwords that she was infatuated with the love of a handsome doe eyed And he tormented her until he melted her heart And made her taste love and humility So I told her this (what you’re going through) is for that (what you put me through) so she lowered her head defeatedly and said Every oppressor will one day face oppression And I love this musical rendition of the above poem too
