1. A heart formed of anguish
And tears that tell of blood
١. قَلبٌ تَكَوَّن مِن ضَرم
وَمَدامع تَحكي الديم
2. Her hands forever shackled
A body embodied by torment
٢. أَبَداً يورس وَكفها
جسماً تَجسَّم مِن سَقم
3. And I am the sacrifice for the tyrant
In his unjust rule when he ruled
٣. وَأَنا الفِداء لَجائِر
في حُكمِهِ لَما حَكَم
4. His eyelids deafen hearts
And his words revive decay
٤. أَجفانُهُ تَصمي القُلو
ب وَنطقهُ يُحيي الرِمَم
5. Oh how dreadful the deeds of the unchaste one
And woe to him, who could bear such injustice?
٥. يا بئس ما فَعل الغَرا
م وَوَيحُهُ مَن ذا ظلم
6. By God we did not, we did not
Graze the blossoms, shepherd of sins
٦. بَنّا فَلا وَاللَهُ ما
خَدَش النَوى رَعي الذِمَم
