هبَّت سحراً فنبّهتْ وسواسي

نشوى خَطَرتْ عليلةَ الأَنفاسِ
She stirred before dawn and roused my restless thoughts.
The dawn breeze blew and stirred my cares,
Intoxicated, she glided past, her breath languid.
Reviving hopes when breathing was despair,
أَهدتْshe bestowed أَرجَthe fragrance الرَّجاءِof hope بعدَafter اليأْسِdespair
أَهدتْ أَرجَ الرَّجاءِ بعدَ اليأْسِ
ماhow أَطيبَsweet بعدَafter وحشتيmy loneliness إيناسيmy solace
ما أَطيبَ بعدَ وحشتي إيناسي
She bestowed the fragrance of hope after despair.
After hopelessness it brought hope anew,
How sweet is my solace after my loneliness!
How sweet my friend is after solitude.
