لحاظُكَ لي مهلكٌ

لحاظُكَ لي مهلكٌ

وثغرُكَ لي مطلبُ

وثغرُكَ لي مطلبُ

Your glances spell my doom;

Your glances are deadly to me,

and your smiling mouths are my desire.

and your mouth is what I seek.

يكادُ سنا برقِهِ

يكادُ سنا برقِهِ

بأبصارِنا يذهبُ

بأبصارِنا يذهبُ

The radiance of its lightning almost

The radiance of its lightning almost

robs us of our sight.

takes away our sight.
