ما لي من الأيام إلا ما حوى

ما لي من الأيام إلا ما حوى

يومي وأما غير ذاك فليس لي

يومي وأما غير ذاك فليس لي

Of all my days, I have only what is held

Nothing of the days is mine except what is contained

Within today; whatever lies beyond is not mine.

In my day; and as for anything else, it is not mine.
