ما حال من بعدنا

ما حال من بعدنا

لا أوحش اللَه منك يا قمرنا

لا أوحش اللَه منك يا قمرنا

How have things been since we left?

How are you after we parted

May God never leave us desolate without you, O our moon.

May Allah not make you lonely, our moon

يا من يحاكي القنا

يا من يحاكي القنا

إذا ترنح أو قد تثنا

إذا ترنح أو قد تثنا

O you who resemble lances,

You who mimics the lute

When you sway or bend.

When it sways or bends

بل يا سويجي الرّنا

بل يا سويجي الرّنا

يا من حوى في الزّين كلّ معنى

يا من حوى في الزّين كلّ معنى

Rather, O little one with the languid gaze,

Rather, you who contains all melody

O you who embody every aspect of beauty.

You who encompasses all meaning in beauty

لولا ضرائر لنا

لولا ضرائر لنا

وحقّ راسك قطّ ما افترقنا

وحقّ راسك قطّ ما افترقنا

Were it not for our pressing needs,

If not for our circumstances

And by your head, we would never have parted.

By your head we would have never parted

فابسط لنا عذرنا

فابسط لنا عذرنا

ولا تواخذنا بما فعلنا

ولا تواخذنا بما فعلنا

So make room for our excuse,

So make excuses for us

And do not blame us for what we have done.

And do not blame us for what we did
