لَقَد ذَهَبَ الحَبيبُ وَغابَ عنّي
فَعَنّي الشّمس غابَت بِالضّياءِ
My beloved has gone and vanished from me
So the sun has vanished from me in its light
فَقلت إِذِ السّما لِلشّمسِ أَبدَت
لَقَد صَعَدَ الحَبيب إِلى السّماءِ
I said, since the sky revealed itself to the sun
My beloved has surely ascended to the sky
