وَفي الحَمّامِ يَبدو لَ

وَفي الحَمّامِ يَبدو لَ

كَ مَكنونُ السَراويلِ

كَ مَكنونُ السَراويلِ

And in the bathhouse there is revealed to

In the bathhouse there appears to you

In the bathhouse, there is revealed to you

you what trousers conceal.

The secret of the underwear

That which is hidden beneath the trousers.

فَقُم مُجتَلِياً فَاِظُر

فَقُم مُجتَلِياً فَاِظُر

بِعَينَي غَيرِ مَشغولِ

بِعَينَي غَيرِ مَشغولِ

So rise and gaze, then look

So get up uncovered and look

So rise up to gaze, and look intently

with the eyes of one undistracted.

With eyes not preoccupied

With the eyes of one wholly unoccupied.

تَرى رِدفاً يُغَطّي الظَه

تَرى رِدفاً يُغَطّي الظَه

رَ مِن أَهيَفَ جَدوَلِ

رَ مِن أَهيَفَ جَدوَلِ

You see a rump that covers the back

You see a rear covering the backside

You see a backside that overwhelms the back

of a slender-waisted, well-built youth.

From the most delicate stream

Of a slender, well-proportioned youth,

يُناجي بَعضُهُ بَعضاً

يُناجي بَعضُهُ بَعضاً

بِتَكبيرٍ وَتَهليلِ

بِتَكبيرٍ وَتَهليلِ

One part of it whispers to another

Conversing together

Its parts whispering to one another

with 'God is greatest' and 'There is no god but God.'

With glorification and praise

With chants of God's greatness and unity.

أَلا يا حَبَّذا الحَمّا

أَلا يا حَبَّذا الحَمّا

مُ مِن مَوضِعِ تَفضيلِ

مُ مِن مَوضِعِ تَفضيلِ

Ah, how delightful is the bathhouse,

Oh, how excellent is the bathhouse

Oh, how cherished is the bathhouse

a place to be preferred,

From the place of virtue

As a place of supreme preference,

وَإِن نَغَّصَ بَعضَ الطي

وَإِن نَغَّصَ بَعضَ الطي

بِ أَصحابُ المَناديلِ

بِ أَصحابُ المَناديلِ

even if some of the pleasure is spoiled

Even if some of the enjoyable aspects

Even if some of the pleasure is spoiled

by those with towels.

Are spoiled by the towel bearers

By the attendants bearing the towels.
