She rose to me with a kiss embracing me

قامت إلي بتقبيل تعانقني

1. She rose to me with a kiss embracing me
Her scent permeating my bones as though musk filled her mouth

١. قامَت إِلَيَّ بِتَقبيلٍ تُعانِقُني
رَيّا العِظامِ كَأَنَّ المِسكِ في فيها

2. Let me sacrifice myself for you, no one is aware of us
My soul for your soul, curing an illness that afflicts her

٢. أَدخُل فَدَيتُكَ لا يَشعُر بِنا أَحَدٌ
نَفسي لِنَفسِكَ مِن داءٍ تُفَدّيها

3. Thus we spent the night sleepless on our beds
From intense passion drawing me near and I drawing her near

٣. بِتنا كَذلِكَ لا نَومٌ عَلى سُرُرٍ
مِن شِدَّةِ الوَجدِ تُدنيني وَأُدنيها

4. Until the first light appeared I said to her
Parting draws nigh, grief almost bursting her apart

٤. حَتّى إِذا ما بَدا الخَيطانِ قُلتُ لَها
حانَ الفِراقُ فَكادَ الحُزنُ يُشجيها

5. Then she left and no one was aware of us
And may Allah reward her for her good deeds

٥. ثُمَّ اَنصَرَفت وَلَم يَشعُر بِنا أَحَدٌ
وَاللَهُ عَنّي بِحُسنِ الفِعلِ يَجزيها
