يُخفيhe hides الغرامَpassion وعينهand his eye تبديهِreveals it
يُخفي الغرامَ وعينه تبديهِ
وبزيفِand with a pretense of صدٍّrejection إنif دناhe draws near .. يُقصيهhe drives him away
وبزيفِ صدٍّ إن دنا .. يُقصيه
He hides his passion, yet his eye reveals it.
And with feigned rejection, he drives him away if he draws near.
قسماًI swear لقدindeed بانَhas become plain الذيthat which فيin قلبهِhis heart
قسماً لقد بانَ الذي في قلبهِ
وand وَشَىinformed بهagainst him ماwhat كادَnearly أنto يُرديهdestroy him
و وَشَى به ما كادَ أن يُرديه
I swear, what is in his heart has become plain.
And what nearly destroyed him has given him away.
