فكم سبحت فلك المنى في بحارها

فكم سبحت فلك المنى في بحارها

فاليوم استوت بي على الجودِي

فاليوم استوت بي على الجودِي

How often the ship of hopes has sailed in its seas!

How often have I swum the seas of hope,

And today it has come to rest with me upon al-Judi.

Only to founder today upon their shoals.
