I will prevent my heart from yearning for you

سأمنع قلبي أن يحن إليك

1. I will prevent my heart from yearning for you,
And stop my tears from spilling over you.

١. سأَمْنَعُ قَلبِي أن يَحِنَّ إِلَيْكِ
وأنْهى دموعِي أَن تَفيضَ عَلَيْكِ

2. Betrayal - yet I did not betray, treachery - yet I was not treacherous.
For me, the honesty of loyalty in you is lost.

٢. أَغَدْراً وَلَمْ أَغدِرْ وخَوْناً وَلَمْ أَخُنْ
لقد ضاعَ لي صدْقُ الوفاءِ لَدَيْكِ

3. Through your actions, beauty has become a flaw to me, even if
The bright moon and sun resemble you.

٣. بِفِعْلِكِ عِيبَ الحَسنُ عندِي وإِنْ غَدَتْ
مهاةُ النَّقا والشَّمْسُ مُشْتَبِهَيْكِ

4. I turn my face away from the rising sun,
For its traits have become associated with you.

٤. أَصُدُّ بوجهي عن سَنا الشَّمْسِ طالِعاً
لأَنْ صار مَنْسُوبَ الصِّفَاتِ إِلَيْكِ

5. And I find distasteful the sweet honey whose taste is delightful,
Due to the flavor found on your lips.

٥. وأَستَفْظِعُ الشَّهْدَ اللذِيذَ مَذَاقُهُ
لِمَطْعَمِهِ الموجودِ فِي شَفَتَيْكِ

6. I turn my hearing and speech away from the mention of you,
Even if a dove disputes them from me.

٦. وأَصرِفُ عن ذِكْرَاكِ سمعي ومَنْطِقِي
ولو نازَعَتْنِيها حَمامةُ أَيْكِ

7. And if a graceful doe were to pass by me, I would avoid it
Due to the image of your eyes and your glances of the past.

٧. ولو عَنَّ لي ظَبْيُ الفَلا لاجْتَنَبْتُهُ
لِتِمْثالِ عَيْنَيْكِ وسالِفَتَيْكِ
