لم تبق ذكراً ولا هيأت سلوانا
False hopes recede—may I be your ransom.
False hopes, for your sake, have departed,
They left no memory, nor provided consolation.
Leaving behind not a trace of yearning.

يا ليت ما كان قبل اليوم ما كانا
What came of my heart and my gaze has come to pass.
What my heart and my eyes felt before
Oh, if only what happened before today had never happened.
If only it had never been at all!
