1. Her soul arose for my soul
The dew is the resurrection of souls
١. قامَت قِيامَةُ روحِها لِرَواحي
إِنَّ النَوى لِقِيامَةُ الأَرواحِ
2. She went away, so my separation grieved her
And the wind of departing pained her
٢. غَيداءُ غاداها فِراقي بِالأَسى
وَأَذاقَها البُرَحاءُ وَشكُ بَراحي
3. So she wept, and her tears on her cheeks
Were like drops on cups of wine
٣. فَبَكَت فَصارَ الدَمعُ في وَجناتِها
مِثلَ الحَبابِ عَلى كُؤوسِ الراحِ
4. And when she wept, her face appeared
As a garden adorned with flowers
٤. فَكَأَنَّ صَفحَةَ وَجهِها لَمّا بَكَت
رَوضٌ تَرَصَّعُ وَردَهُ بِأَقاحِ
