1. How many sighs and how many tears
This, by my life, is true misery
١. كَمْ زفراتٍ وكم دُمُوع
هذا لَعَمري هُوَ القُطُوعُ
2. If my cheek sprouted from tears
Spring would be in my cheek
٢. لَوْ أَعْشَبَ الخَدُّ مِنْ دُمُوعٍ
لَكانَ في خَدِّيَ الرَّبيعُ
3. O moon that disappeared from my eyes
For God's sake, tell me when is sunrise
٣. يا قَمَراً غَابَ عَنْ عِياني
بِاللَهِ قُلْ لي مَتى الطُّلوعُ
4. You left, yet you didn't leave my heart
Parting between us became evident
٤. بِنْتَ فَما بِنْتَ عَنْ فُؤادي
فَبَانَ مِنْ بَيْنِكَ الهُجُوعُ
