1. And the break of dawn my longing eyes made open
Through all the dark from passions without rest or sleep.
١. وَبي كَسرُ جفنِ الحِبِّ صَيَّرَ في الدّجى
لِجَفني مَفتوحاً مِنَ الوجدِ لِلصُّبحِ
2. Before this love I never felt the sorrow
That now has worked this opening of my eyes so deep.
٢. وَلَم أَدرِ مِن قَبل الهَوى كَسر جَفنِهِ
غَدا عامِلاً في جفنِ عَيني لِلفَتحِ
