الآن إذ حل الفراق جدت لي

الآن إذ حل الفراق جدت لي

بخفي حب كنت تبدي بخله

بخفي حب كنت تبدي بخله

Now that parting has come, you have been generous to me

Now that parting has come, you show me

Now that parting has come, you become generous to me

With hidden love you once openly withheld.

With concealed love you used to withhold

With a hidden love you once so fiercely withheld,

فزدتني في حسرتي أضعافها

فزدتني في حسرتي أضعافها

ويحي فهلا كان هذا قبله

ويحي فهلا كان هذا قبله

Thus you have increased my anguish many times over.

Thus multiplying my sorrow manifold

Only multiplying my sorrow manifold—

Woe is me! Why did this not come before parting?

Alas, why was this not done before?

Woe to me! If only this had come before.
