1. Do you know what the Yemeni people contain
In the darkness of homes upon sweet quarrels

2. Suns in the sky of the palace appear
And if they set, their sunset is my paradise

3. The consciences bow down before them
And my wishes kiss the ground they tread on

4. The lions beneath them lie slain
By the magic of their glances, not by spears

5. When I think of their love
I become as if I were the heart of the coward

6. It has watered with happiness a time I lived
Melting tears, even provoking passion

7. A time of joy that preoccupies you
From the strings the laughter of the jugs
