Translation by Franz Toussaint (1879 - 1955)

Comme chaque jour, je l'attends....
Language: French (Français)  after the Arabic (العربية) 
Comme chaque jour, je l'attends.  Reviendra-t-elle ? 
Je pense au soir de l'adieu,  au bruit de la porte qu'elle referma 
sans colère, au silence qu'il y eut dans  mon âme. 
Comme chaque jour, je l'attends.  Reviendra-t-elle ?
Elle entrerait en disant, pour parler : 
« Je passais devant ta demeure,  
et je viens voir si les roses n'ont pas  souffert de l'hiver... » 
Puis, elle sourirait à mon petit jar-din, 
à l'horizon calme, et je sais bien  qu'elle ne repartirait pas.
