1. When hatred appeared and love departed
From a traitor with no fault to be found
١. لَما بَدا البُغض وَزال الحُبُّ
مِن خائن لَم يُجدِ فيهِ العَتْبُ
2. I left my heart chained to him
And went away, my body and tears pouring
٢. تَرَكت قَلبي عِندَه مقيداً
وَرحت بِالجسم وَدَمعي صبُّ
3. And I said, since I left him and marked the date
I parted from him with the parting of one I loved
٣. وَقُلت مُذ فارقته مُؤرخاً
فارقته فراق مَن أُحبُّ
