وَيْحَ رُوحي أَظُنُّها في السِّياقِ

وَيْحَ رُوحي أَظُنُّها في السِّياقِ

عِنْدَ وَقْتِ الفِراقِ يَوْمَ الفِراقِ

عِنْدَ وَقْتِ الفِراقِ يَوْمَ الفِراقِ

Alas for my soul! I think it is in its death throes,

Alas, my soul - I think it's lost

At the hour of parting, on the day of parting.

On that sad day we parted ways.

فَاطْلُبوها بِحَيْثُ كُنَّا اعْتَنَقْنا

فَاطْلُبوها بِحَيْثُ كُنَّا اعْتَنَقْنا

هَلَكَتْ عِنْدَ شُغْلِنا بِالعِناقِ

هَلَكَتْ عِنْدَ شُغْلِنا بِالعِناقِ

So seek it where we had embraced;

Search for it where we last embraced -

It perished while we were absorbed in embracing.

It died when we were in love's embrace.
