دراك يا خلي دراك

دراك يا خلي دراك

من قبل أن أذهب عليك حسره

من قبل أن أذهب عليك حسره

Save me, my beloved—save me!

Rescue me, my beloved, rescue me,

Before I perish in sorrow over you.

Before I perish in grief over you.

فاننا في الهلاك

فاننا في الهلاك

إن لم تداركني بفرد نظره

إن لم تداركني بفرد نظره

For truly, we are perishing

For we are perishing,

Unless you rescue me with a single glance.

If you do not rescue me with a single glance.

خامر طباعي هواك

خامر طباعي هواك

وبامتزاجه فيّ صار فطره

وبامتزاجه فيّ صار فطره

Your love has permeated my nature,

Love for you has permeated my nature,

And, mingling within me, became my very being.

And through its mingling within me, it has become my innate nature.

وكيف شا أعشق سواك

وكيف شا أعشق سواك

أولى على طول البعاد قدره

أولى على طول البعاد قدره

How could I ever love anyone but you?

And how shall I love anyone but you?

Though the separation lasts, your worth has the greater claim.

Or have I the strength to endure long separation?
