أَسَرtook captive الهَوىlove نفسيmy soul فَعَذبَهاand tormented it
أَسَر الهَوى نفسي فَعَذبَها
يَومَthe day of الوِداعparting فَلَمso did not أَطِقI have the strength for مَنعاresistance
يَومَ الوِداع فَلَم أَطِق مَنعا
Love took my soul captive and tormented it
My heart's desire captivated my soul, and tormented it
On the day of parting; I could not resist.
The day we parted, I could not bear to abstain
فَأذابَso melted حَرُّthe heat of صَبابَتيmy ardent longing كَبِديmy liver
فَأذابَ حَرُّ صَبابَتي كَبِدي
وَأسالَهاand made it flow فيin جُنَّتيmy shield دَمعاas tears
وَأسالَها في جُنَّتي دَمعا
So the heat of my longing melted my liver
So the heat of my ardour melted my inner being
And made it flow within my shield as tears.
And spilled it, as tears, in my gardens
