between the high an low tides [of our emotions]
مد و جزر
commonly refers to the high and low tide (of the ocean). Since this is used here in the Arabic as a metaphor for high and low emotions, or feelings, or tension, or stress (depending on the context, more context would be helpful), why not use it the same way in English, with the added word like emotions to clarify the metaphor somewhat?

Example sentence:
We lived through the moments of waiting and expectation once again, and between the high and low tides of our emotions, and news of his release and then no news...
