1. A breeze stirred up a quarter that was gentle and benign
Yes, so your heart is tightly shut

2. For the one who's home is far away, you recall
And your heart is tied to their remembrance

3. Time reminds me of times gone by
Of a life once lived, and so tears well up in my eyes

4. Nights with my family and with her family
My tears precede in remembrance of them

5. Our dwelling place is one and the same
And the rope of affection does not wear out

6. For us and for Hind is the place at the ridge of Al-'Aqiq
An abode and dwelling serene

7. If that time has passed away
And your rope from hers comes untied

8. Then I have lived, in times gone by, her intimacy
Nights of union with her I embrace
