أَحِنُّ إِلى لِقائِكَ كُلَّ يَومٍ

أَحِنُّ إِلى لِقائِكَ كُلَّ يَومٍ

وَأَسأَلُ عَن إِيابِكَ كُلَّ وَقتِ

وَأَسأَلُ عَن إِيابِكَ كُلَّ وَقتِ

I long to meet you every day,

I long to meet you every day.

and ask about your return at every moment.

And I ask about your return at every moment.

وَأَذكُرُ ما مَضى فَيَغيضُ صَبري

وَأَذكُرُ ما مَضى فَيَغيضُ صَبري

وَتَنفُرُ عَبرَتي وَيَبوحُ صَمتي

وَتَنفُرُ عَبرَتي وَيَبوحُ صَمتي

I remember what has passed, and my patience gives way;

And I recall what has passed, so my patience ebbs.

my tears burst forth, and my silence speaks.

And my tears burst forth, and my silence speaks.

وَلي قَلبٌ إِذا ذَكَرَ التَلاقي

وَلي قَلبٌ إِذا ذَكَرَ التَلاقي

تَظَلَّمَ مِن يَدِ البَينِ المُشِتِ

تَظَلَّمَ مِن يَدِ البَينِ المُشِتِ

Mine is a heart that, whenever it recalls reunion,

And I have a heart that, when it recalls reunion,

has learned its lesson at the hand of parting—the disperser.

Complains of the hand of sundering separation.
