1. You have made the nights into worries for me
Distracted far from one that I love
١. نَم فَقَد وَكَّلتَ بي الأَرقا
لاهِياً بُعداً لِمَن عَشِقا
2. You have left of my body just a specter
Other than the one I was created to be
٢. إِنَّما أَبقيتَ من بَدَني
شَبَحاً غَيرَ الَّذي خُلِقا
3. A young man called to you out of hardship
His insides scorched with burning
٣. وَفَتىً ناداكَ مِن كُرَب
أَسعَرت أَحشاءَهُ حُرقا
4. His eyelids drowned in tears
So his humanity called out for rescue
٤. غَرِقَت في الدَّمعِ مُقلَتُهُ
فَدَعا إِنسانَها الغَرقا
5. What fault is it of one perfect in beauty
That he bestow a glance upon one who loves?
٥. ما لمن تَمَّت مَحاسِنُهُ
أَن يُعاطي طَرفَ من عَشِقا
6. It's yours to show us comeliness
And ours to act with penetrating insight
٦. لَكَ أَن تُبدي لَنا حُسناً
وَلَنا أَن نُعمِلَ الحَدَقا
