قَلبٌ تَكَوَّن مِن ضَرم

قَلبٌ تَكَوَّن مِن ضَرم

وَمَدامع تَحكي الديم

وَمَدامع تَحكي الديم

A heart fashioned from blazing fire,

A heart formed of anguish

and weeping eyes that mimic steady rains;

And tears that tell of blood

أَبَداً يورس وَكفها

أَبَداً يورس وَكفها

جسماً تَجسَّم مِن سَقم

جسماً تَجسَّم مِن سَقم

their dripping forever stains yellow

Her hands forever shackled

a body that took shape from sickness.

A body embodied by torment

وَأَنا الفِداء لَجائِر

وَأَنا الفِداء لَجائِر

في حُكمِهِ لَما حَكَم

في حُكمِهِ لَما حَكَم

And I would give my life for one unjust

And I am the sacrifice for the tyrant

in his judgment when he passed sentence.

In his unjust rule when he ruled

أَجفانُهُ تَصمي القُلو

أَجفانُهُ تَصمي القُلو

ب وَنطقهُ يُحيي الرِمَم

ب وَنطقهُ يُحيي الرِمَم

His eyelids strike hearts dead,

His eyelids deafen hearts

and his speech revives decayed bones.

And his words revive decay

يا بئس ما فَعل الغَرا

يا بئس ما فَعل الغَرا

م وَوَيحُهُ مَن ذا ظلم

م وَوَيحُهُ مَن ذا ظلم

Ah, how evil is what passion has done,

Oh how dreadful the deeds of the unchaste one

and alas for it! Who has done wrong

And woe to him, who could bear such injustice?

بَنّا فَلا وَاللَهُ ما

بَنّا فَلا وَاللَهُ ما

خَدَش النَوى رَعي الذِمَم

خَدَش النَوى رَعي الذِمَم

to us? No, by God, never

By God we did not, we did not

has separation marred the keeping of pledges.

Graze the blossoms, shepherd of sins
