يوم النوى شرُّ يوم
يَمُرُّpasses بِالوَلهانِupon the lovelorn
يَمُرُّ بِالوَلهانِ
The day of parting is the worst day
The day of parting is an evil day
That befalls the lovelorn.
It creeps in like a prowler
عَينايَmy two eyes مُنذُsince نَأيتمyou (plural) went far away
عَينايَ مُنذُ نَأيتم
عَينانِtwo eyes نَضّاخَتانِboth gushing forth
عَينانِ نَضّاخَتانِ
My eyes, since you went far away,
My eyes, since you left
Are two eyes gushing forth.
Are two tearful pools
