من بعد فراقي جيرتي بالشعب

من بعد فراقي جيرتي بالشعب

احببتكم لعل يشفي كربي

احببتكم لعل يشفي كربي

After parting from my neighbors in the ravine,

After my separation, I passed by the valley,

I loved you, hoping it would heal my anguish.

I loved you all, perhaps to heal my sorrow.

داويت هوى اضنى فؤادي

داويت هوى اضنى فؤادي

يهوى ما زاد علي غير فقد القلب

يهوى ما زاد علي غير فقد القلب

I treated a passion that had worn out my heart.

I tried to cure the painful love of my heart,

It loves; I gained nothing but the loss of my heart.

It desires what increased upon me other than the loss of heart.
