أشكوI complain إلىto اللَهGod ماwhat لاقيتI endured منof حرقٍburning anguish
أشكو إلى اللَه ما لاقيت من حرقٍ
يومon the day of الفراقparting وماand what حُمِّلتُI was made to bear منof ألمpain
يوم الفراق وما حُمِّلتُ من ألم
I complain to God of the burning anguish I endured
I complain to God for the burning I felt
On the day of parting, and of the pain I was made to bear.
On the day we parted, and the pain I bore
لوif لمnot يكنbe فيin جنانيmy heart رسمthe outline صورتكمyour image
لو لم يكن في جناني رسم صورتكم
وفيand upon لسانيmy tongue ثناكمpraise of you ذبتI would have melted away منfrom ندمregret
وفي لساني ثناكم ذبت من ندم
Had the outline of your image not been in my heart,
If your image were not etched in my heart
And praise of you upon my tongue, I would have melted away in regret.
And your memory not on my tongue, I'd melt in regret
Sol 6.1
