1. الله يعين الروح .. كم هي تمنى

    شوف الحبايب ساعةٍ عقب حرمان

    May God help the soul—how it longs

    To see loved ones for an hour after deprivation.

  2. والله يجازي اللي بلطفه هدنا

    وقتٍِ تبدل وأبدل الوصل هجران

    And may God requite the one whose gentleness broke us—

    A time that changed, replacing union with estrangement.

  3. أقفى ربيع الحب .. وأدهر وطنا

    وشوك الثرى دسناه في درب الأحزان

    Love's spring departed, and our homeland grew desolate.

    And we trod the earth's thorns on the path of sorrows.

  4. خاط القدر بسلوك حكمه كفنا

    وإلى حكم وش ياترى بيد الإنسان

    Fate stitched our shroud with the threads of its decree.

    And when it decrees, what, I wonder, lies in human hands?

  5. حنا ضحايا الياس .. نرجي زمنا

    ينظر لنا لو يوم لله بإحسان

    We are victims of despair, hoping that our time

    Will look upon us with kindness, for God's sake, if only for a day.

  6. حنا ليالينا بهوانا رمنا

    حنا .. جنينا ونرجي الله غفران

    We—our nights cast us down through our passion.

    We—we have sinned, and we hope for God's forgiveness.
