1. Oh, the grief of a sigh, then more grief
And a lover whose glances have bewitched me
١. آه من مَيَّةُ آهٍ ثم آه
وحَبيبٍ سَحرتني مُقلتاه
2. If I were asked, before death, what I wish for
I would say, to kiss the dust of his grave
٢. لو تَمنَّيتُ قُبيل الموت ماذا
أتمنى قلت تقبيل ثراه
3. I wish for death from his glances
What prevents me from longing for his mouth
٣. أتمنى الموت من مقلته
ما الذي يمنع أن أشتاق فاه
4. Oh, the grief of a sigh, then more grief
And a lover whose encounter has saddened me today
٤. آه من مَيَّةُ آهٍ ثم آه
وحبيبٍ عزّني اليوم لقاه
