أَتَيتُكَ إنَّ الباهِلِيَّ يَسوقُني

أَتَيتُكَ إنَّ الباهِلِيَّ يَسوقُني

بدَينٍ وَمَطلوبُ الدُيونِ رَقيقُ

بدَينٍ وَمَطلوبُ الدُيونِ رَقيقُ

I have come to you; indeed, al-Bahili drives me

My younger days when debts would accrue

for a debt, and one pursued for debts is a slave.

The bailiff came to claim what was his due

ثلاثَتُنا إن يَسَّرَ اللَهُ فائِزٌ

ثلاثَتُنا إن يَسَّرَ اللَهُ فائِزٌ

بأجرٍ وَمُعطى حَقُّهُ وَعَتيقُ

بأجرٍ وَمُعطى حَقُّهُ وَعَتيقُ

The three of us, if God grants ease: one will win

But now the Lord has blessed me times three

a reward, one will be given his due, and one will be set free.

My debts repaid, rewards gained, and freedom's glee
