1. With the father of the visitor who filled the cheeks with splendor
And every heart with joy,
١. بأبى الزائر الذي ملأَ اللَّحْ
ظَ بهاءً وكلَّ قلبٍ سرورا
2. I left him as the full moon rising though long ago
His noble fathers were Bedouins,
٢. خِلْتُه البدرَ مقبِلاً وقديماً
كان آباؤه الكرامُ بدورا
3. He brought charm to my house, would that
Every day I could go to visit him
٣. زادَ داري أُنْساً فيا ليت أنِّي
كلَّ يومٍ به أروح مَزُورا
