وإذاand when تَأمّلْتَyou contemplate الوداعfarewell رأيتَهyou see it
وإذا تَأمّلْتَ الوداع رأيتَه
دمعاًtears يفيضoverflows علىupon الخدودthe cheeks دماءَblood
دمعاً يفيض على الخدود دماءَ
And when you contemplate farewell, you see it
When you contemplate farewell, you see it is
As tears flowing as blood upon the cheeks.
A tear overflowing as blood on cheeks.
وَلَوَand if أنّthat قلبيmy heart فيكconcerning you أُعطِيَwere granted سُؤْلَهits wish
وَلَوَ أنّ قلبي فيك أُعطِيَ سُؤْلَه
يومday الفِراقthe parting لفارقَit would have left الأحشاءthe entrails
يوم الفِراق لفارقَ الأحشاء
And had my heart been granted its wish concerning you,
If my heart could grant you its plea
On the day of parting, it would have left my entrails.
On the day we part, it would leave my guts.
