لَدارُكَ من قلبي كقلبي كرامةً

لَدارُكَ من قلبي كقلبي كرامةً

وبِرُّك عندي ليس يبلغه شكري

وبِرُّك عندي ليس يبلغه شكري

Your home is indeed as dear to my heart as my heart itself.

Your home has dignity in my heart like my heart

And my gratitude cannot match your kindness to me.

And your righteousness with me, my gratitude cannot reach it

وَأنتَ الّذي أَبغيهِ في شَطَطِ المُنى

وَأنتَ الّذي أَبغيهِ في شَطَطِ المُنى

وأشرطه يومَ الشِّراطِ على دهري

وأشرطه يومَ الشِّراطِ على دهري

And you are the one I seek in my farthest-reaching wishes,

And you are the one I want in the misguidance of wishes

And whom I require of my fate on the day terms are set.

And I make it a condition on the day of conditions for my life

وَما راعَنِي إلّا فراقُك بغتَةً

وَما راعَنِي إلّا فراقُك بغتَةً

وقلبِيَ مملوءٌ لوصلِكَ بالبِرِّ

وقلبِيَ مملوءٌ لوصلِكَ بالبِرِّ

And nothing alarmed me but your sudden departure,

And nothing startled me but your sudden separation

While my heart brimmed with devotion to our bond.

And my heart is filled with your kindness

وَكُنتُ وَقَد عُرِّيتُ منك كمُدْلِجٍ

وَكُنتُ وَقَد عُرِّيتُ منك كمُدْلِجٍ

تَعرّى عَلى الظلماءِ مِن طَلعةِ البدرِ

تَعرّى عَلى الظلماءِ مِن طَلعةِ البدرِ

And, stripped of you, I was like a traveler by night,

And I was stripped of you like a night visitor

Bereft, amid darkness, of the full moon's face.

Stripped in the dark before the rising of the full moon

وَلَم أَدرِ ما في يومنا غيرَ أنّنا

وَلَم أَدرِ ما في يومنا غيرَ أنّنا

قُطِعْنا بقَطْرٍ لا يدوم عن القَطْرِ

قُطِعْنا بقَطْرٍ لا يدوم عن القَطْرِ

And I knew not what our day held, except that we

And I did not know what was in our day except that we

Were cut off by a passing shower from the rain.

Were cut off by a rain that does not last from the rain
