1. They imprisoned him, not for a crime, but they
Were stingy with the sight of his beauty for a moment
١. حبسوه لا بجريمةٍ لكنهم
بخلوا على لحظ العيون بحسنه
2. A sprout, harmonious in his uprightness
Among us, and ravishing with his youth
٢. رشأٌ يجور مع اعْتدال قوامه
فينا ويفتك مع حداثة سنه
3. O you who ask about Joseph, he is Joseph
With all hearts imprisoned by his captivity
٣. يا سائلي عن يوسفٍ هو يوسفٌ
كلّ القلوب بأسرها في سجنِه
