هويتُ مطرّزا كالبدر حُسنا

هويتُ مطرّزا كالبدر حُسنا

يُعاملني بوعد ليس يُنجزُ

يُعاملني بوعد ليس يُنجزُ

I loved an embroiderer, beautiful as the full moon.

I fell in love with one as beautiful as the full moon

He treats me with a promise he does not fulfill.

Who makes promises that are never kept

سبى قلبي برقم الخدّ حُسنا

سبى قلبي برقم الخدّ حُسنا

وتيمّني بعارضه المطرّز

وتيمّني بعارضه المطرّز

He captured my heart with the beautiful embroidery of his cheek,

My heart was captivated by the beauty mark on his cheek

and enthralled me with his embroidered side-whiskers.

And I was infatuated by his well-shaped eyebrows
