I forgot our pact, so when I came to her

نسيت عهدي فلما جئتها

1. I forgot our pact, so when I came to her
She claimed I had forgotten our vows

١. نَسِيَت عَهدي فَلَمّا جِئتُها
زَعَمَت أَنّي تَناسَيتُ العُهود

2. And pretended I was aloof and ascetic
If I were so, I would have been happy

٢. وَاِدَّعَت أَنّي خَلِيٌّ زاهِدٌ
أَنا لَو كُنتُ كَذا كُنتُ سَعيد

3. She was eager to repel me, after
I had spent nights sleepless from her rejection

٣. رَغِبَت في الصَدِّ عَنّي بَعدَما
بِتُّ لا يُحزِنُني مِثلُ الصُدو

4. Just as her cheek denied knowing my kiss
Her beauty denied knowing those vows

٤. مِثلَما أَنكَرَ ثَغري خَدُّها
أَنكَرَت فاتِنَتي تِلكَ الوُعود

5. Oh, my witnesses when we were together
Remind her, where are you my witnesses?

٥. يا شُهودي عِندَما كُنّا مَعاً
ذَكِّروها أَينَ أَنتُم يا شُهود

6. The moon that watched us has fallen silent
And the roses in the garden have withered

٦. سَكَتَ البَدرُ الَّذي راقَبَنا
وَذَوَت في الرَوضِ هاتيكَ الوُرود

7. The morning breeze wanders lost
In songs, the confusion of the lovesick youth

٧. وَمَشَت ريحُ الصَبا حائِرَةً
في المَغاني حَيرَةَ الصَبِّ العَميد

8. Oh, her passion, tell me when will you leave me?
It said: when those cheeks turn sallow

٨. يا هَواها قُل مَتى تَترُكُني
قالَ أَو تَصفَرَّ هاتيكَ الخُدود

9. I will not curse her with malice
Fearing the gloating of enviers

٩. أَنا لا أَدعو عَلَيها بِالضَنى
أَتَّقي أَن يَشمَتَ الحَسود
