1. If only the day I parted from them was not so hard
They would not have pained my heart with such graceful composure
١. لو أنّ يومَ فراقِهم عن موعدٍ
لم يَفْجِعوا قلبي بحُسْنِ تجلُّدِ
2. Departing was difficult, with yearning in my heart
Between the crescent moon and the swaying branches
٢. جَدَّ الرحيلُ وفي الفُؤادِ لُبانةٌ
بينَ الأهِلَّةِ والغُصونِ المُيَّدِ
