1. The full moon rose in the horizon, swaying
The veiled ladies, cloaked in their beauty
١. بَرَزَ البَدرُ في جَوارٍ تَهادى
مُخطَفاتِ الخُصورِ مُعتَجِراتِ
2. I took a deep breath then said to the morning:
"You have hastened life's disappointments for me"
٢. فَتَنَفَّستُ ثُمَّ قُلتُ لِبِكرٍ
عَجَّلَت في الحَياةِ لي خَيباتِ
3. Is there a way to her, who I do not care
If after her I die before my time
٣. هَل سَبيلٌ إِلى الَّتي لا أُبالي
بَعدَها أَن أَموتَ قَبلَ وَفاتي
