1. O festival night, I found in it
Only the misfortunes of my ill-fated luck

2. I stayed up all night long reluctantly
I stayed up grieving for my son

3. Don't you see me crying
I almost peel off my own skin out of sorrow

4. She cries and I don't know what hurts her
I say, oh Mayya, oh my daughter, are you alright?

5. Oh Mayya, my tears have dried up, leave me be
In my eyelids remains a tear for tomorrow

6. Oh God, after I became a father
I made my soul in the cradle with my son

7. Oh Lebanon's holiday, what have you taken
From the goodness of your cool breeze?

8. Sorry, for time preoccupies me
With my little girl today from you, my country

9. My Lord, the road has become difficult
My Lord, my back is bent so take my hand

10. What is this white hair crowning my head?
White hair is the white hair of the heart and liver
