The sword of the glance has severed our union

قد سل سيف اللحظ فينا وصال

1. The sword of the glance has severed our union
And struck us - how valiant are men!

١. قد سَلَّ سَيفُ اللَحظِ فينا وِصال
وَاِحرَبا مِنهُ وَيا لِلرِجال

2. Had he wished a sigh of mine to fade
He would not have bent his shoulders, youth and coquetry.

٢. لَو شاءَ أَن تَخمِدَ لي زَفرَةٌ
لَم يَثنِ عِطفَيهِ الصِبا وَالدَلال

3. My Master, there is no patience or solace -
Yearning has fretted me and confusion grows.

٣. مَولايَ لا صَبرَ وَلا سَلوَةٌ
قَد بَرَّحَ الشَوقُ وزادَ الخَبال

4. Whether you cut me off or join me
I have no choice with you in any case.

٤. إِن شِئتَ قاطِعني وَإِن شِئتَ صِل
لا بُدَّ لي مِنكَ عَلى كُلِّ حال
