1. How can I sleep when you are not there?
Youth has departed and I did not attain my wish

2. Aims for the goal I struggled for were changed
To a hope that fate exchanged for oblivion

3. Indifferent is the passionate lover and sorrowful is he
Who strikes the faces of resolve with misfortunes

4. Indeed great deeds were hindered from reaching
By lack of wealth and scarcity of support

5. So over Iraq is the gloom of a lover
Who made the ribs platforms for grudges

6. He discloses his innermost secrets but gains nothing
Except shedding tears and lightning flashes
