1. أيها الركب الميمم أرضي

    أقر من بعضي السلام لبعض

    O caravan heading toward my land,

    Convey greetings from one part of me to another.

  2. إن جسمي كما علمت بأرض

    وفؤادي ومالكيه بأرض

    Indeed, my body, as you know, is in one land,

    And my heart and those who possess it are in another land.

  3. قدر البين بيننا فافترقنا

    وطوى البين عن جفوني غمضي

    Separation was decreed between us, so we parted,

    And separation swept sleep away from my eyelids.

  4. قد قضى الله بالفراق علينا

    فعسى بإجتماعنا سوف يقضى

    God has indeed decreed separation upon us;

    So perhaps our reunion will yet be decreed.
