دَعني أُواصِل من قَطَع

دَعني أُواصِل من قَطَع

تَ تَراهُ بي إِذ لا يراكا

تَ تَراهُ بي إِذ لا يراكا

Let me keep ties with the one you have cut

Let me continue what was cut off

off; you see him through me when he does not see you.

You see me when he cannot see you

إِنّي مَتى أَحقِد لِحِق

إِنّي مَتى أَحقِد لِحِق

دِكَ أَضُرّ بِهِ سِواكا

دِكَ أَضُرّ بِهِ سِواكا

Indeed, whenever I bear a grudge because of your

When I resent someone dear to you

grudge, I harm someone other than you with it.

I only hurt you, no one else

وَإِذا أَطَعتُكَ في أَخي

وَإِذا أَطَعتُكَ في أَخي

كَ أَطعتُ فيهِ غَداً أَخاكا

كَ أَطعتُ فيهِ غَداً أَخاكا

And if I obey you concerning your

And when I obey you regarding a brother

brother, tomorrow I shall obey your brother concerning him,

I will obey you regarding his brother tomorrow

حَتّى أرى مُتَقَسَّما

حَتّى أرى مُتَقَسَّما

يَومي لِذا وَغَدي لِذاكا

يَومي لِذا وَغَدي لِذاكا

until I see it divided:

Until I see my day divided

my day for this one, and my tomorrow for that one.

Today for this one and tomorrow for that one
