quran:25:28 –

Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken that one as a friend.  

O woe to me! (yā waylatā: the ˹final˺ alif stands in place of the ˹first person singular˺ possessive yā’, yā waylatī, meaning ‘˹alas˺ for my destruction!’) Would that I had not taken so and so, in other words, ˹that˺ Ubayy, as friend!
القرآن:٢٥:٢٨ –

يَا وَيْلَتَىٰ لَيْتَنِي لَمْ أَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِيلًا  

{يا وَيْلَتَى} ألفه عوض عن ياء الإضافة أي ويلتي، ومعناه هلكتي {ليتني لم أتخذ فلانا} أي أبيَّا {خليلا}.
