1. Between longing and torment and yearning
My night passed as such was my state
١. بين سهدٍ وعذابٍ وضنى
مرّ ليلي ذاك حالي وأنا
2. I ask the stars about the state of the beloved
Oh my love how did it become between us
٢. أسأل الأنجم عن حال المنى
يا حبيبي كيف صارت بيننا
3. How did our promise pass, my love
After our love and closeness became pleasant
٣. كيف أمسى يا حبيبي عهدنا
بعد ما طاب هوانا ودنا
4. Everything that was once distant became intimate
Every star in the heavens of splendor
٤. كلُّ ما كان بعيداً ورنا
كلُّ نجمٍ من سماوات السنا
5. Oh, if only my state now could be seen, oh
When life became too narrow for my pain
٥. آه لو ينظر حالي الآن آه
حينما ضاقت بآلامي الحياه
6. The star regretted its long brilliance
And saw how we folded into its expanse
٦. ندم النجمُ على غالي سناه
ورأى كيف انطوينا فطواه
