1. O heart, you have suffered grief
Since the one with the shining smile left,

2. You can’t forget the past life in the palace
Overlooking the river,

3. Days when Zahira was no different than Zahir,
Days when we would never stop

4. Mocking Shakir,
We would spend our gilded days

5. Strolling and walking on the sand,
We would flutter over the water

6. Like flocks of birds,
And the absence of someone made us miserable,

7. While the company of others made us happy,
We would play and frolic, unable to distinguish

8. Between Ahmed or Aziz,
A time gone by when we didn't calculate

9. Any shameful or pure deeds,
Since he left us, the sweetness of my days has changed into sorrow,

10. And when I remember the days of his company,
It's as if remembering every good thing.
