قلبي الذي قد هام في غادة

قوامها كم شاق أقواما
My heart, which has fallen madly in love with a graceful maiden
My heart that fell in love with Ghada
Whose figure has captivated so many people,
Her body tormented many a folk
كأنهas though it were طفلٌa child شديدٌintense in الظماthirst
كأنه طفلٌ شديدٌ الظما
فيat كلevery وقتٍmoment يشتهىcraves ماما'ma-ma' (baby-talk for water)
في كل وقتٍ يشتهى ماما
Is like a child parched with thirst,
As if it were a greedy child
At every moment craving 'ma-ma'—water.
Who at all times longs for mama
