1. How could you have had patience from us
O you who stole our minds
١. بالله كيف صبرت عنا
يا من سلبت العقل منا
2. Tell me, how were you
As you taught and how were we
٢. انسيت قل لي كيف كن
ت كما علمت وكيف كنا
3. This night came about only
Because of you, we became insane
٣. ما جن هذا الليل الا
فيك عن وله جننا
4. God knows we never thought
It would be said you had patience for us
٤. الله يعلم ما ظننا
ان يقال صبرت عنا
5. The Merciful never laughs after you
At the enemies, we presented our teeth
٥. لا اضحك الرحمن بع
دك قط للاعداء سنا
6. If being poisoned satisfies you
Then we have wilted, exhausted
٦. ان كان يرضيك السقا
م لنا فقد ذبنا تهنا
7. And hear our love songs for you, at night we stayed awake, yearning
Why not when we are at the spear of your contempt, any leaf we stabbed
٧. واسمع ثرانا فيك اش
بعنا الدجى حنا وانا
8. Leave the harshness and with loyalty, treat your passionate lover
For you, above the branch of the soul, a bird whose wounded heart sang
٨. لم لا ونحن برمح خص
رك أي ورقته طعنا
9. It sang and fell into your eyes, oh if only love rang
Your acceptance is the goal of his quest
٩. فدع الجفاء وبالوفا
عامل مهيمك المعنى
10. And seeing you is the height of what he wished for
١٠. لك فوق غصن الروح طا
ئر قلبه المجروح غنا
١١. غنا ووقع سام عي
نك فيه أي والحب رنا
١٢. فرضاك زبدة قصده
ولقاك غاية ما تمنى
