مِثَالِيَ أُهْدِيهِ إِلى مَنْ أُحِبّهُ

مِثَالِيَ أُهْدِيهِ إِلى مَنْ أُحِبّهُ

وَلِي فِيهِ قَلْبٌ خَافِق وَسَرَائِرُ

وَلِي فِيهِ قَلْبٌ خَافِق وَسَرَائِرُ

I offer my likeness to the one I love.

My ideal I present to the one I love

And in it I have a beating heart and hidden thoughts.

In it lies a fluttering heart and innermost secrets

إِذا فَرَّقْتَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمُ النَّوَى

إِذا فَرَّقْتَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمُ النَّوَى

فَإِنِّي بِعَيْنَيْهِ إِلَيْهِمْ لَنَاظِرُ

فَإِنِّي بِعَيْنَيْهِ إِلَيْهِمْ لَنَاظِرُ

If distance parts me from them,

If you separate me from them by distance

then through its eyes I shall surely gaze toward them.

With my eyes I still look upon them
