1. The moon set, it called to its crescent and shouted to it
Three times, and on the fourth it embraced it
١. حدر القمر صوّت لخله وناداه
ثلاث مرات وبالرابعة ون
2. The moon set, oh how it whispered to it and confided in it
And their eyes, how much they met with its light
٢. حدر القمر يا ما همس له وناجاه
وعيونهم ياما بنوره تلاقن
3. And last night it passed by the wolf with its howling
Its suspicions stood still during the nights interacting
٣. والبارحه عدا على الذيب بعواه
واقفت ظنونه بالليال يتعادن
4. It passed by it once, and passed it another time
And once it smiled at it, and once cried for it
٤. مرٍ حوالينه ومرٍ تعداه
ومر تضاحك له ومر يتباكن
5. These are the equals that insomnia drove away from sleep
The phantom of the beloved that was on its mind answered back
٥. هذي سواة اللي عن النوم قزاه
طيف الحبيب اللي على خاطره عن
6. If its eyes saw the beauty it wished for
And if the voice of the crescent is the voice of passion, it softened
٦. ان شافت عيونه جمال تمناه
وان صوت القمري لصوت الهوى حن
7. The wounding one wounds and flows and forgets it
And the wounds of the wounded nights converge
٧. الجارحه تجرح وتسري وتنساه
وجروح مجروح الليالي تساقن
8. And the hidden one, the stab of its time wrinkled it
And the separation from it, its eyes express
٨. والخافيه طعنة زمانه تمثناه
والبينه عنها عيونه يبوحن
