لَقَد عَرَضَ الوَداعُ فَباتَ قَلبي

رَهينُ جَوىً لِبُعدَكَ وَالتياعِ

Farewell crept in, now my heart's a hostage

To the ache of your absence and misery

وَلَولا أَنَّني أَرجو قَريباً

لِقاكَ لَما بَقيتُ إِلى الوَداعِ

If I had no hope to reunite with you soon

I would not have lasted until the farewell
