1. The night has spread over us a starry gown
And dawn has set it aflame, leaving it scorched
١. وَمَدَّ عَلَينا اللَيلُ ثَوباً مُنَمَّقاً
وَأُشعِلَ فيهِ الفَجرُ فَهوَ مُحَرَّقُ
2. We awoke to a dawn whose brightness
Seemed to have learned from us how to blaze and shine
٢. وَصَبَّحَنا صُبحٌ كَأَنَّ ضِياءَهُ
تَعَلَّمَ مِنّا كَيفَ يَبهى وَيُشرِقُ
