1. If you are clothed in dust, O abode, from the youth
Wear no dress but what my streaming tears assign.
١. فَإِن تَكتَسي يا دارُ تُرباً مِنَ الصِبا
فَلا تَلبَسي مِن أَدمُعي غَيرَ مُعلِمِ
2. When can yearning be stifled between lover and loved,
A mourning spirit, flowing tears ensanguined?
٢. مَتى تُكتَمُ الأَشواقُ ما بَينَ باسِمٍ
نَمومٍ وَدَمعٍ بِالدِماءِ مُنَمنَمِ
