1. I have a friend through time, my friend
And a companion through adversities, my companion
١. لي صَديقٌ عَلى الزَمانِ صَديقي
وَرَفيقٌ مَعَ الخُطوبِ رَفيقي
2. If you could see me when my tears flow
In the mornings when I remember him or at night
٢. لَو تَراني إِذا اِستَهَلَّت دُموعي
في صَبوحٍ ذَكَرتُهُ أَو غَبوقِ
3. I drink tears with my friend from my cup
And I mix its stems with ruby
٣. أَشرَبُ الدَمعَ مَع نَديمي بِكَأسي
وَأُحَلّي عِقيانَها بِعَقيقِ
