O my masters, if only you could see the tears since your departure,
O my masters, if you could see the tears after you left
Or know the lovelorn one's plight and how it has unfolded.
Or know the state of anguish and how it has flowed

Indeed, by the Kaaba of love between us, and the serenity
By the Kaaba, there is affection between us
Of hours of companionship, in which the pillar of hopes made pilgrimage,
Times of intimacy, through which the corner of wish has performed Umrah

My eye hasn't stopped since you disappeared
Because of you, and sent a trace of itself toward you.
Sending its tears towards you all as traces
