1. I spent the night restless like a flea
My eyelids burdened by the peaceful night

2. While my mind was preoccupied
And my eyes were awake though heavy

3. When Pharaoh became tyrannical
I feared him like Moses the speaker

4. And when he invites me to drink my blood
He drinks gallons - what an evil drinking companion

5. So I fled from him in fright
While he chased me steadily

6. So don't blame me, O Tameem
If I see him attacking and flee, O Tameem
