إِن روحي ودعتني عندما

ودعتني ليلةَ البينِ ثريا

When my soul bid me farewell as

It bid me farewell on the night of parting, Thuria,

بل دمعي وجنتيها مثلما

بللت من مدمعيها وجنتيا

My tears and my cheeks were as if

I had wet them from my pouring tears and my cheeks,

لا كلامٌ من ثريا غيرَ ما

أسمعته مقلتاها مقلتيا

No words from Thuria except what

I heard her eyelids say to my eyelids,

ليلةٌ تمضي وتغدو بعدها

درتي الحسناءُ في غيرِ يديا

A night passes and after it dawns

My beautiful Darthi in the hands of another,

ليلةٌ تمضي وتغدو زوجةً

لدخيلٍ صالَ بالمالِ عليا

A night passes and she becomes the wife

Of a stranger who came with money over me,

أيها السائلُ عني بعدها

إِنَّ من تسألُ عنهُ ليس حيا

O you who ask about me after her,

Indeed, the one you ask about is no longer alive,

قتلوه يوم مالوا بالثريا

ورموها في الثرى ظلماً وغيا

They killed him when they inclined to Thuria

And threw her in the ground unjustly and ignorantly,

ليتهم قد قتلوه وحده

ويحهم قد قتلوا ايضاً ثريا

If only they had killed him alone

And woe to them, they had also killed Thuria.
