إِنّي مِن صَدِّكَ في لَوعةٍ

إِنّي مِن صَدِّكَ في لَوعةٍ

تَغوّلَت لُبّي وهَاضت جَناح

تَغوّلَت لُبّي وهَاضت جَناح

Indeed, your rejection has left me in burning anguish.

Indeed, from your rejection, I am in sorrow

It has ravaged my mind and broken my wing.

My core is churned up and my wing droops

لَستُ على سُخطِكَ جَلدَ القُوى

لَستُ على سُخطِكَ جَلدَ القُوى

ولا على هَجرك شاكي السّلاح

ولا على هَجرك شاكي السّلاح

I am not strong enough to endure your displeasure,

I am not with your anger, hardy

Nor fully armed against your abandonment.

Nor with your abandonment, armed with weapons

وما أَنا حين تُؤذِنُني بِصرمٍ

وما أَنا حين تُؤذِنُني بِصرمٍ

ربيطُ الجَأشِ متّسعُ الخِناقِ

ربيطُ الجَأشِ متّسعُ الخِناقِ

Nor, when you tell me you are severing our bond, am I

When you hurt me, I am not

Steady of heart or free to breathe.

Relaxed and easy, though my throat is constrained
