1. Wherever you may be, oh how I wish that I were there with you
In the place of Suhail, among all the stars,
١. أَلا لَيتَ أَنّي مِنكُم حَيثُ كُنتُمُ
مَكانَ سُهَيلٍ مِن جَميعِ الكَواكِبِ
2. They see him as a companion, and he sees them in turn
He journeys on when they journey, though not as their companion
٢. يَراهُنَّ أَصحاباً وَهُنَّ يَرَينَهُ
وَيَسري إِذا يَسرينَ غَيرَ مُصاحِبِ
