The day we said the time has turned against us

يوم كنا نقول عاكسنا الده

1. The day we said the time has turned against us
We found among our friends some who blame

١. يَومَ كُنا نَقول عاكَسنا الده
رُ وَجَدنا مِن صحبنا مَن يَلوم

2. They say, fear Allah and be content
How much have you been wronged, o oppressor

٢. فَيَقولون اِتّق اللَه وَاِقنَع
كَم تَظلّمت طامِعاً يا ظَلومُ

3. This is an outing, and you see it
Every day, so what more could you want

٣. هَذِهِ نُزهة وَأَنتَ تَراها
كُلَ يَومٍ فَما عَساكَ تَرومُ

4. Woe to them, if they saw what time has done
They would say, tormented, ill-fated

٤. وَيحَهُم لَو يَرون ما صَنَعَ الده
ر لَقالوا معذب مَشئوم

5. I had hoped that if an outing lasted
In a place where I once stayed

٥. كُنتُ أَرجو لَو أَن نزهة أَضحت
في مَكان قَد كُنتُ فيهِ أُقيم

6. What I hoped for did not happen until you left
So who is the oppressor, and who the oppressed

٦. لَم يَكُن ما رَجَوتُ حَتّى تَرحّل
تُ فَمَن ظالم وَمَن مَظلومُ
