1. غِبْتَ فَلاَ عَيْنٌ وَلاَ مَخْبَرٌ

    وَلاَ انْتِظَارٌ مِنْكَ مَرْقُوبُ

    You are gone—no sight of you, and no news,

    Nor any prospect of your return.

  2. يَا يُوسُفٌ أَنْتَ لَنَا يوسُفٌ

    وَكُلُّنَا فِي الْحُزْنِ يَعْقُوبُ

    O Yusuf, you are our Yusuf,

    And each of us, in grief, is Yaqub.
