واحَرَبَا مِنْ أوجُهٍ مِلاَحِ

واحَرَبَا مِنْ أوجُهٍ مِلاَحِ

وَحَدَقٍ مَرَائِضٍ صِحَاحِ

وَحَدَقٍ مَرَائِضٍ صِحَاحِ

Oh, my anguish from lovely faces,

With faces like shining moons

And languid eyes, yet healthy,

And lively, sparkling eyes

وَمِنْ ثُقُورٍ تُشْبِهُ الأَقَاحِي

وَمِنْ ثُقُورٍ تُشْبِهُ الأَقَاحِي

مَمْلُوءَةٍ مِنْ بَرْدٍ وَرَاحِ

مَمْلُوءَةٍ مِنْ بَرْدٍ وَرَاحِ

And from mouths resembling daisies,

And breasts like ripening fruits

Filled with coolness and wine!

Full of coolness and delight

هُنَّ اللَّواتي أَفْسَدَتْ صَلاَحي

هُنَّ اللَّواتي أَفْسَدَتْ صَلاَحي

وَأَبْرَحَتْني أَيَّمَا إِبْرَاحِ

وَأَبْرَحَتْني أَيَّمَا إِبْرَاحِ

They are the ones who ruined my virtue,

They are the ones who ruined my virtue

And tormented me beyond measure,

And led me far, far astray

وَتَرَكَتْ لَيْلَى بِلا صَبَاحِ

وَتَرَكَتْ لَيْلَى بِلا صَبَاحِ

And left my night without a dawn.

Leaving Layla without dawn’s light
