1. Oh would that I knew what she will talk to me
Tomorrow, when absence and distance divide us,
١. أَلا لَيتَ شعري ما الَّذي تحدِثين بي
غَداً غُربه النَأي المفرِّق وَالبعد
2. In Umm Bakr's tent, when she draws near
And is left alone with her kinsmen after me.
٢. لَدى ام بَكر حينَ تَقتَرِب النَوى
بِنا ثُمَّ يَخلو الكاشِحونَ بِها بعدي
3. Will she blame me, if they gloat, or will she keep true to her vow?
٣. انصرِمني عِندَ الأَلى لَنا العِدا
فَتشمتهُم بي ام تَدومُ عَلى العَهد
