1. We were all together as time brought us near
Like letters of the word inseparable and clear
١. كنّا جميعاً والدَّهرُ يَجْمعُنا
مثْلَ حُروفِ الجَميع مُلتصقَهْ
2. But today farewell has come to make us
Like letters of goodbye, split and bare
٢. فاليومَ جاء الوَداعُ يَجعَلُنا
مثْلَ حُروفِ الوَداعِ مُفْتَرِقَه
