وصَلْتُI continued حَثيثَswift السّيْرِtravel فيمَنْwith those who فَلَىcrossed الفَلاthe open wastes
وصَلْتُ حَثيثَ السّيْرِ فيمَنْ فَلَى الفَلا
فَلاso not خاطِرِيmy thoughts لمّاwhen نأىhe went far away وانْجَلَىand departed انْجَلىcleared
فَلا خاطِرِي لمّا نأى وانْجَلَى انْجَلى
I pressed on swiftly with those who crossed the open wastes.
Yet my thoughts did not clear when he went far away and departed.
ولاnor نسَخَتْerased كَرْبيmy anguish بقَلْبِيَin my heart سَلْوَةًsolace
ولا نسَخَتْ كَرْبي بقَلْبِيَ سَلْوَةً
فلمّاthen when سَرىpassed through فيهِin it نَسيمُa breeze سَلاSalé سَلاit found solace
فلمّا سَرى فيهِ نَسيمُ سَلا سَلا
Nor did solace in my heart erase my anguish.
But when the breeze of Salé passed through it, my heart found solace.
