1. Had there been no moon when I visited you
To light the clear path before me,
١. لَو لَم يَكُن قَمَرٌ إِذا ما زُرتُكُم
يَهدي إِلى نَهجِ الطَريقِ الواضِحِ
2. Yearning would have flared within my heart
To illuminate the earth amid my ribs.
٢. لَتَوَقَّدَ الشَوقُ المُبَرِّحُ مُهجَتي
حَتّى تُضيءُ الأَرضُ بَينَ جَوانِحي
