Diwan al-Nabigha al-Dhubyani

المرءُ يأملُ أن يَعيشَ ،
Read with the dictionary
Each line's feet, with its long and short syllables.

البحر : مجزوء الكامل

المرءُ يأملُ أن يَعيشَ ،و طولُ عيشٍ قد يضرهْ

تفنى بشاشتهُ ، ويبقى ،بعدَ حلوِ العيشِ ، مرهْ

وتَخونُهُ الأيّامُ ، حتَىلا يَرَى شيئاً يَسُرّهْ

كَم شامتٍ بي ، إن هلكتُ ،و قائلٍ : للهِ درهْ
