اشرب على ذكرِ الأحبَّة إنهم

عمّا قليل قادمونَ عليكا

Drink to the memory of your loved ones - for

Soon they will come to you.

لا تنسيَنّهُمُ فإنَّ لديهمُ

شوقاً وشوقاً للحديثِ إليكا

Do not forget them, for they

Long and yearn to speak with you.

وكأنني بهمُ لديك وإنّما

شمسُ النهارِ بهم هناك لديكا

I see them with you now; the sun

Of day is with them, there with you.

ولقد ملأتَ يديهِمُ بِكَ غِبطةً

ولقد ملأتَ بهم كذاك يديكا

You have filled their hands with joy;

You have filled your hands with them.
