من هجرك الامان

من هجرك الامان

ومدمعي هتان

ومدمعي هتان

I seek safety from your abandonment.

The one who abandoned you is insecure

And my tears pour down.

And my tears are flowing

ناري لها لهيب

ناري لها لهيب

ومدمعي هتان

ومدمعي هتان

My fire blazes,

My fire has flames

And my tears pour down.

And my tears are flowing

اذاب لي وجودي

اذاب لي وجودي

جمالك المصان

جمالك المصان

My being was melted away

It melted my existence

By your guarded beauty,

Your protected beauty

وقدك المفدى

وقدك المفدى

وطرفك الوسنان

وطرفك الوسنان

And your dearly cherished figure,

And your perfect creation

And your drowsy gaze.

And your tender eyelids

كتمت فيك وجدي

كتمت فيك وجدي

وللهوى لسان

وللهوى لسان

I concealed my passion for you,

I concealed in you my passion

And love has a tongue.

And the love has a tongue

عليّ نم دمعي

عليّ نم دمعي

والآه ترجمان

والآه ترجمان

My tears betrayed me,

Upon me sleep my tears

And the sigh is an interpreter.

And sighs translate

يا من ثوى بقلبي

يا من ثوى بقلبي

هل سرك المكان

هل سرك المكان

O you who have dwelt in my heart,

O you who dwelled in my heart

Did the place please you?

Is your secret place satisfied?

حللت محو كلي

حللت محو كلي

لو يترك الجنان

لو يترك الجنان

You sanctioned my utter effacement;

For it I dissolved completely

If only the heart were spared!

Even if heavens are left behind

به حللت فارحم

به حللت فارحم

هو الهوى هوان

هو الهوى هوان

You have dwelt in it, so have mercy:

For it I dissolved, so have mercy

Love itself is humiliation.

It is passion, it is humiliation

يا ريم منك ادمى

يا ريم منك ادمى

فؤادي السنان

فؤادي السنان

O gazelle, you have bloodied

O Rim, from you I am wounded

My heart with the spearhead.

My heart is shattered

فالجيد منك فجر

فالجيد منك فجر

والوجه زبرقان

والوجه زبرقان

For your neck is dawn,

So the best from you is dawn

And your face is a full moon.

And your face is shiny

وذا الثغير در

وذا الثغير در

وذا الخصير زان

وذا الخصير زان

And this little mouth is pearl,

And that cheek is a pearl

And this little waist is a beech tree.

And that forelock is beautiful

من ريقك استعارت

من ريقك استعارت

صهباءها الدنان

صهباءها الدنان

From your saliva was borrowed

From your saliva the white flowers

The wine jars' tawny wine.

Borrowed their brightness

والخد منه الفت

والخد منه الفت

ازهارها الجنان

ازهارها الجنان

And from the cheek were fashioned

And the cheek lent

The gardens' blossoms.

Its gardens their blooms

ورد على شقيق

ورد على شقيق

حلاه ارجوان

حلاه ارجوان

Roses upon anemones,

A rose on the cheek

Adorned by crimson.

Beautified it with redness

والخال فت مسكا

والخال فت مسكا

لديه اقحوان

لديه اقحوان

And the beauty spot crumbled musk;

And the mole emitted musk

Beside it is a chrysanthemum.

Near it are moles

له فصول نشر

له فصول نشر

رموزه حسان

رموزه حسان

It has chapters of fragrance,

It has seasons in bloom

Its symbols are beautiful.

Its symbols are goodness

فلطفها مذيب

فلطفها مذيب

وسرها فتان

وسرها فتان

So their delicacy melts the heart,

Its charm melts

And their secret is enchanting.

And its secret tempts

قد طال امر هجري

قد طال امر هجري

والوقت والزمان

والوقت والزمان

My state of abandonment has lasted long,

My abandonment has been so long

And the hours, and time itself.

And time keeps flowing

فمهجتي لعمري

فمهجتي لعمري

ثار لها دخان

ثار لها دخان

So my heart, by my life—

So my mind for my life

Smoke has risen from it.

For it erupted in smoke

افرطت يا فلان

افرطت يا فلان

من هجرك الامان

من هجرك الامان

You have gone too far, O so-and-so!

I have been excessive, O Fulaan

I seek safety from your abandonment.

The one who abandoned you is insecure
