I sacrifice him the night he visited me stealthily

أفديه ليلة زارني متسترا

1. I sacrifice him the night he visited me stealthily
An Indian in his palm holding a sword

١. أفديه ليلة زارني متستراً
هنديه في كفه مسلولا

2. Fearing the slanderers even if his eyelids rang
The sword made what he wanted guaranteed

٢. خوف الوشاة ولو رنت أجفانه
جعل الحسام بما أراد كفيلا

3. So I busied myself from kissing him with tears
If it was a flood no channel would be found

٣. فشغلت عن تقبيله بمدامع
لو كن سيلا ما وجدن مسيلا

4. And I found him gently kissing
As if he was a benevolent doctor healing a patient

٤. ووجدته مترفقاً في لثمه
فكأنه آس يجس عليلا

5. I did not get what I hoped from him, rather
He left behind in my heart an ardent craving

٥. ما نلت ما أملت منه وإنما
أجلى تمثل في فؤادي سولا
