1. Nights of Najd, none like you, nights
Your love was dear at first, and love grew dearer

2. Nights of Najd, so gentle for the beloved
You were entrusted to me, light of my eyes, oh nights

3. My love - if I remembered he was my love
I knew I was fortunate, my mind at ease

4. On his shoulder, hardships seemed easy
I taste the bitter for his happiness today

5. And when time grew harsh
I found shade in his cherished nearness

6. God forgive him for what came first
His love washed away all subsequent sorrow
