لَقَدindeed عَرَضَcame الوَداعُfarewell فَباتَso became قَلبيmy heart
لَقَد عَرَضَ الوَداعُ فَباتَ قَلبي
رَهينُa captive of جَوىًheartache لِبُعدَكَbecause of your absence وَالتياعِand anguish
رَهينُ جَوىً لِبُعدَكَ وَالتياعِ
Farewell has indeed come, and so my heart has become
Farewell crept in, now my heart's a hostage
A captive of heartache and anguish at your absence.
To the ache of your absence and misery
وَلَولاand were it not for أَنَّنيthat I أَرجوhope for قَريباًsoon
وَلَولا أَنَّني أَرجو قَريباً
لِقاكَmeeting you لَماwould not have بَقيتُsurvived إِلىuntil الوَداعِfarewell
لِقاكَ لَما بَقيتُ إِلى الوَداعِ
And were it not that I hoped soon
If I had no hope to reunite with you soon
To meet you, I would not have survived until farewell.
I would not have lasted until the farewell
