إذْwhen أزمعتْresolved آلُthe people of ليَلىLayla ابتْكاراdeparting early in the morning
إذْ أزمعتْ آلُ ليَلى ابتْكارا
Whatever I may forget, I shall not forget the day of departure,
I will not forget, I will not forget the day of departure
When Layla’s people resolved to depart early in the morning.
When Layla's family decided to move on
أفاضَتْmade flow دُموعاًtears وفضَّتand dispersed جموعاًgatherings
أفاضَتْ دُموعاً وفضَّت جموعاً
وشاقَتْand stirred longing in صُدوراًbreasts وشقّتand tore صداراa bodice
وشاقَتْ صُدوراً وشقّت صدارا
They made tears flow and scattered gatherings,
Tears flowed and crowds gathered
And stirred longing in breasts and tore a bodice,
Chests ached and hearts split
وجارتْand acted unjustly فصارَso became ليَfor me الحُزنُgrief جاراa neighbor
وجارتْ فصارَ ليَ الحُزنُ جارا
ونارتْand withdrew فأضرمتso set ablaze القلبَthe heart ناراfire
ونارتْ فأضرمت القلبَ نارا
And acted unjustly, so grief became my neighbor,
Sorrow became my neighbor
And drew away, setting the heart aflame.
Fire blazed and lit my heart aflame
