وَعَسى اللَيالي أَن تَمُنَّ بِجَمعِنا

عِقداً كَما كُنّا عَلَيهِ وَأَكمَلا

Perhaps the nights will grant us to be united

As we once were, perfect and complete

فَلَرُبَّما نُثِرَ الجُمانُ تَعَمُّداً

لِيَكونَ أَحسَنَ في النِظامِ وَأَجمَلا

For strings of pearls are often strewn apart

To then be restrung in a more beautiful way
