1. O moon, the moon has set
And the child of darkness has become complete
١. يا أَيُّها البَدرُ إِنَّ البَدرَ قَد أَفَلا
وَإِنَّ طِفلَ الدُجى قَد صارَ مُكتَهِلا
2. So pass, for when it appears and life is pleasant
Bitter in taste, it makes its morning honey
٢. فَاِجلُ الَّتي إِن بَدَت وَالعَيشُ مَطعَمُهُ
مُرُّ المَذاقِ أَعادَت صابَهُ عَسَلا
3. Our morning is mixed with the remnants of night
As if it were blue, now clad in kohl
٣. فَصُبحُنا بِبَقايا اللَيلِ مُختَلِطٌ
كَأَنَّهُ أَزرَقٌ قَد لاحَ مُكتَحِلا
