In the pond I saw a small child

في الغطاس رأيت صغير

1. In the pond I saw a small child
With a decorated lantern in his hand

١. في الغطاس رأيت صغير
ومعه فانوس مزوّق

2. On it were narcissus and apple
How beautiful it is, by God it captivates

٢. وعليه نرجس وتفاح
ما أحسنه واللَه يشوّق

3. And listen to him say to his sister
Why don't you have one so you can scream?

٣. واسمعوا يقول لأخته
مالك مثله فتزعق

4. My daughter, get me a lantern
Like my little brother's small one

٤. با بتي خُذ لي فوينيس
مثل خَيّي ذا الصغير

5. She said to him, yes papa
And for me this is essential

٥. قال لها نعم يا بابا
وعليَّ هذا ضروري

6. And I saw in a dream a hedgehog
Made of dough that stayed yellow

٦. ورأيت في النوم قُنَيفذ
من عجين يبقى أصَيفر

7. Next to it was a seller calling out
Sweets, oh little one

٧. وحَداه بيّاع يُنادي
الحلاوة يا صغير

8. So I wished I was like a maze
Ramadan came and I was grown

٨. فانغبنت أنا كَمنّي
جا الصيام وأنا كبير

9. And I too am naughty
Eating pre-dawn meals in childhood

٩. وأنا الآخر جكارة
في الصغار آكل سحوري

10. Yes, even if it had kanafa
They would perfume it with incense

١٠. أي ولو كان فيه كنافة
بيّتوها في بخور
