لو كانَ يُفدى مرضٌ

لو كانَ يُفدى مرضٌ

كنا فدينا مرضَكْ

كنا فدينا مرضَكْ

If an illness could be ransomed,

If an illness could be redeemed

we would have ransomed your illness;

We would have redeemed yours

أو تقبلُ الحمى الفدا

أو تقبلُ الحمى الفدا

جعلتُ روحي عوضكْ

جعلتُ روحي عوضكْ

or if fever accepted ransom,

Or if the fever would accept a sacrifice

I would have made my soul your substitute.

I would have given my soul in your place
