إذا بكى باد ساكنها
ذو وحدة ساءه في داره الزمن
When the wind cries in her deserted abode
Of loneliness that saddened him in his home, time
بكيت أهلي وأوطاني وآسفني
أن ليس لي بعدهم دار ولا سكن
I cried for my family and homelands and was saddened
That after them I have no home or dwelling
أخنى الزمان على قومي وملك أو
طاني سواي فلا أهل ولا وطن
Time has grieved for my people and the kingdom of my
Homelands except for me, so I have neither family nor homeland
ولم تده لي المنايا مشتكى حزن
أبثه كمدي إن عادني حزن
And death did not leave me a confidant to share my sorrow
That I may express, if sorrow comes back to me
