Fi dunya wal akhira

(From Arabic: “In this world and the next”)

“In this world and the next”
There is something stronger than death.
“In this world and the next”
I will love you beyond my last breath.

The day that we met was my fate;
It left me in a spellbinding state.
I’m sure you also can see—
Only your love set me free.

Today, I love you a lot,
But tomorrow, I’ll love you much stronger.
I won’t break your heart anymore;
I know it’s been broken so often.

I won’t let you go anymore;
I will hold you so carefully, fondly.
I wish I had known you before—
I prayed for you always, devoutly.

“In this world and the next”
Your heartbeat will stay in my chest.
They say, “Till death do us part,”
But I know—it’s only the start.
