People calmed down and fell asleep – Al-Buhturi
calm people down, and slept
every eye other than mine
And wishes are clear messengers
the one who loves me
I don't see the start of my students
You have only the beginning of my life
هدأ الناس ونامت – الشاعر البحتري
هَدَأَ النَّاسُ ، وَنَامَتْ
كُلُّ عَيْنٍ غَيْرَ عَيْنِي
والأَمَانِي رُسُلٌ بَيْنَ
الَّذي أَهْوَى وبَيْني
مَا أَرَى بَدْءَ طِلاَبي
لَكَ إِلاَّ بَدْءَ حَيْني
I wished you longing when he called me – Al-Buhtari poet
I fulfilled the longing in you, when he called me,
I disobeyed the prohibition of gray hair, when we forbade me
And you claimed that I did not believe in that
I have from the barha, and the trees
Or is it enough for you to bear the tears…
لبيت فيك الشوق حين دعاني – الشاعر البحتري
لَبّيتُ فيكِ الشّوْقَ، حينَ دَعَاني،
وَعَصَيتُ نَهْيَ الشَّيبِ، حينَ نَهَاني
وَزَعَمْتِ أنّي لَستُ أصْدُقُ في الذي
عِندي مِنَ البُرَحَاءِ، والأشجَانِ
أوَمَا كَفَاكِ بدَمعِ عَينَيَ شاهِداً
بصَبَابَتِي، وَمُخَبّراً عَنْ شَاني
تَمْضِي…
Who from God is glorified and benevolent – Poet al-Buhturi
Who is thankful from God, and kindness,
and grace, blasphemy and aggression
By the palace, not by the king of the palace, coming down,
He sacrificed himself for her with a cheerful face
Builds, and outlive the nations that he builds,
the…
من من الله مشكور وإحسان – الشاعر البحتري
مَنٌّ مِنَ الله مَشْكُورٌ، وَإحسانُ،
وَنِعْمَةٌ، كُفرُها ظُلمٌ وَعُدوَانُ
بالقَصْرِ لا بمَليكِ القَصرِ نَازِلَةٌ،
أضْحَى لها وَهوَ طَلقُ الوَجهِ جَذلانُ
يَبني، وَيَعْمُرُ ما يَبنيهِ مِنْ أَمَمٍ،
فالأرْضُ دارٌ لَهُ، وَالنّاسُ عِبدانُ…
I remained a Muslim for Muslims – the poet Al-Buhtari
you remained a Muslim to the Muslims,
And you lived as a successor to God in us
For you have forgotten us, in justice and with due diligence,
I fathered you, the adult
God wanted you to stay with us,
So it was decided that you should be…
بقيت مسلما للمسلمينا – الشاعر البحتري
بَقِيتَ مُسَلَّماً للمُسلِمِينَا،
وَعِشْتَ خَليفَةً لله فِينَا
فَقَدْ أنْسَيْتَنَا،َعَدْلاً و بَذْلاً ،
أُبُوّتَكَ الهُدَاةَ الرّاشِدِينَا
أرَادَ الله أنْ تَبْقَى مُعَاناً،
فَقَدّرَ أنْ تُسَمّى المُسْتَعِينا
إذا الخُلَفَاءُ عُدّوا…
