lū šalmāt ibrī ša libbiya
kabit-ma napīška salmu
inattalā īnāka adnātika

lū šalmāt ibrī ša libbiya
ina kibsī mātika

Goodbye Old Friend
Your peaceful breath slows,
Your eyes gaze upon your world
I offer to you
My strength
Goodbye Old Friend
My hand reaches forth,
Striving for divinity
I offer to you
My love
Goodbye Old Friend
At the steps of your kingdom,
We become one
I offer to you
My life
English (Michael Dougherty translation)[1]
Be well, O Friend of my heart
Your peaceful breath is difficult,
Your eyes gaze upon your world
I will give to you
My strength
Be well, O Friend of my heart
My hand reaches forth,
Striving for divinity
I will give to you
My love
Be well, O Friend of my heart
At the steps of your land,
We become one
I will give to you
My life
