O languid-eyed one, how long must I lament while you wrong me?
O you of drowsy gaze, how much I complain while you wrong me!
Have mercy on me, O languid-eyed one—have mercy!
Your mercy, O you of drowsy eyes, your mercy!
لوif أنthat غيرَother than فؤاديmy heart يشتكيكَcomplains of you معيwith me
لو أن غيرَ فؤادي يشتكيكَ معي
لضجتِthen would clamor الناسُthe people والدنياand the world بشكواكاwith complaints against you
لضجتِ الناسُ والدنيا بشكواكا
If anyone other than my heart joined me in complaining of you,
If anyone but my heart were to complain of you with me,
The people and the whole world would clamor with complaints against you.
The people and the world would clamor with complaints against you.
