We stopped, else had we not been pleased with passion

وقفنا فلولا أننا راضنا الهوى

1. We stopped, else had we not been pleased with passion
We would have cried out before the watcher with lament

١. وقفنا فلولا أننا راضنا الهوى
لهتَّكنا عند الرقيب نحيبُ

2. And below what we face of the pain of passion
Robes, nay hearts, are torn asunder

٢. وفي دون ما نلقاهُ من ألم الهوى
تُشقُّ جيوبٌ بل تشقُّ قلوبُ

3. And when we saw the watcher and his glance
And my glance was a watcher over the watcher's eye

٣. ولما بَصُرنا بالرقيب ولحظهِ
ولحظي على عين الرقيب رقيبُ

4. We turned away, and each had folded beneath his chest
A heart for him between the ribs and bosom

٤. صددنا فكلُّ قد طوى تحت صدرِهِ
فؤاداً لهُ بين الضلوع وجيبُ
