    مِن فَتىً يَكتُمُ حُبَّهْ

    A toy is given to a doll,

    from a young man who conceals his love.

  2. أَنتِ لَو تَرضَينَ شَيئاً

    غَيرَها أَعطاكِ قَلبَهْ

    If you would accept something

    other than it, he would give you his heart.

  3. فَاِذكُريهِ فَهُوَ قَد أَشـ

    ـغَلَ في ذِكراكِ لُبَّهْ

    So remember him, for he has busied

    his mind with thoughts of you.

  4. قابِلي الحُسنى بِعَطفٍ

    هكَذا تَقضي المَحَبَّهْ

    Respond to kindness with tenderness:

    thus does love decree.

  5. رُبَّما ساَءَكِ ما قُل

    تُ فَجاوَبتِ بِغَضبَهْ

    Perhaps what I said displeased you,

    so you answered in a burst of anger.

  6. إِن تَشائي فَهوَ صِدقٌ

    أَو تَشائي فَهوَ كِذبَهْ

    If you wish, it is the truth;

    or, if you wish, it is a lie.
