يا نائياً أينَ دَمعِي

أسعد فقد ضاقَ ذَرعي

O distant one, where are my tears?

My happiness is gone, I can take no more

تضنُّ بالوَصلِ عيني

مُذ كانَ أنتَ وسمعي

My eyes yearn for your presence

Since you and my hearing were one

من كل ضري إلى لَح

ظِ مقلتيهِ ونفعي

From every harm to the cheek

Protect my eyes and benefit me

ويُحبَسُ الدَّمعُ يا مَن

يَزيدُ بالقلبِ فجعِي

And tears are held back, O you who

Increase the sorrow in my heart
