1. I shed a tear when the fair maiden sang
Accompanying herself on the strings
١. شَرِقْتُ بعَبْرَتِي لَمَّا تَغَنَّتْ
عَلَى الأَوْتَارِ رَائِقَةُ الشَّبَابِ
2. Not from grief was I brought to weep
But the lute reminded me of one I love
٢. وَمَا اسْتَعْبَرْتُ مِنْ طَرَبٍ وَلكِنْ
يُذَكِّرُنِي الرَّبَابُ هَوَى الرَّبَابِ
