كتمت هواك حتى عيل صبري
وادنتنيand brought me near مكاتمتيmy keeping it secret لرمسيto my grave
وادنتني مكاتمتي لرمسي
I concealed my love for you until my patience was exhausted,
I concealed my love for you until my patience weakened,
And keeping it secret brought me near my grave.
And my concealment brought me closer to speaking.

فلم أقدر على إخفاء حال

So I could not conceal my condition,
So I could not hide my condition,
In which grief stands in the way of consolation.
With which sorrow prevents intimacy.

وحبك مالك لحظي ولفظي

وإظهاري وإضماري وحسي
And love for you is master of my gaze and my speech,
Your love owns my glance, my words,
And what I reveal, what I conceal, and what I feel.
My expression, my concealment, and my feelings.
فإنfor if أنطقI speak ففيكthen about you جميعall لفظيmy speech
فإن أنطق ففيك جميع لفظي
وإنand if أصمتI am silent ففيكthen about you حديثdiscourse نفسيmy soul
وإن أصمت ففيك حديث نفسي
For if I speak, all my words are of you,
If I speak, then all my words are about you,
And if I am silent, my soul's discourse is of you.
And if I am silent, then you are my thoughts' conversation.
