مذsince غابvanished محبوبيmy beloved عنfrom ناظريmy sight
مذ غاب محبوبي عن ناظري
بطلعةٍwith a countenance كالروضةِlike a garden الناضرهverdant
بطلعةٍ كالروضةِ الناضره
Since my beloved vanished from my sight,
Since my beloved has vanished from my sight
With a countenance like a verdant garden,
At dawn, like a blossoming garden,
أبكيI weep بطرفٍwith an eye فيin الدجاthe darkness ساهرٍsleepless
أبكي بطرفٍ في الدجا ساهرٍ
حتىuntil يرىis seen شخصيmy form فيin الساهرهthe plain of resurrection
حتى يرى شخصي في الساهره
I weep with an eye sleepless in the darkness,
I weep through the night with wakeful eyes
Until my form is seen on the plain of resurrection.
Until I see his image in the watcher
