O messenger, convey my greetings to the people of Al-Aqiq

ألا مبلغ أهل العقيق سلامي

1. O messenger, convey my greetings to the people of Al-Aqiq
And speak of my love and passion in their midst

١. أَلا مُبلِغٌ أَهلَ العَقيقِ سَلامي
وَذاكِرُ وَجدي عِندَهُم وَغَرامي

2. Tell them though fate parts us, I remain
True to my pact and promise with them

٢. وَمُخبِرهُم أَنِّي وإِن شَطَّتِ النَّوى
مُقيمٌ على عَهدٍ لَهُم وَذِمامش

3. I yearn at dawn to see Al-Aqiq's hills light up
With their morning glow and fragrant breeze

٣. أَشيمُ سَنا برقِ العَقيقِ إذا بَدا
مَعَ الصبُّحِ من طَلحِ لَهُم وَثُمامِ

4. And ask the passing wind to carry
Words to soothe my longing and pain

٤. وأَسأَلُ خَفَّاقَ النَّسيمِ أَهَل بِهِ
حَديثٌ يُرَوِّي غُلَّتي وَأُوامي

5. Each dusk, as the breeze blows, I turn towards them
Dreaming, though my eyes succumb to slumber

٥. وَأَصبوا إِليَهم عِندضما تهتفُ الصبَّا
سُحيراً وأنواءُ والجُفونِ هَوامي

6. For in my heart they'll forever remain
At its very core, where they've made their home

٦. وما ذاكَ إلاَّ أنَّ سُكَّانَهُ غداً
لَهُم في صمَيمِ القَلبِ دارُ مُقَامِ
