1. Sing for us, oh beautiful one, a Nile song
And bless with the magic of your eyes in it

2. And if a wave flows on the bank, I drown
Neither resting nor fainting

3. Indeed, in your deep beauty, because it is
A look that torments and chokes from harm

4. Indeed, in your bright face and your
Eyes are springs of coquetry and confusion

5. You, oh charming one, are the mother of the Nile overflowing
With my soul like your likeness

6. The dawn sang from its green banks
And time sang from its past

7. And remember glorious old times
Precious in time to the generous of its sons
