1. ملأتَ المحطةَ بالعاشقين

    فهذا يغيرُ وذاكَ يغارْ

    You have filled the station with lovers.

    So this one attacks, while that one is jealous.

  2. وقلبيَّ مما تمزَّقَ أضحى

    كأنَّ عليهِ يمرُّ القطارْ

    And my heart, so torn apart, now feels

    As though the train were passing over it.

  3. بربكَ ماذا فعلتَ بنا

    وما لكَ عندي ذوي الحبِّ ثارْ

    By your Lord, what have you done to us?

    Yet you have no blood-debt to avenge against me—against those who love.

  4. قتلتَ وأحرقتَ حتى القطار

    يسيرُ وفي قلبهِ منكَ نارْ

    You have killed and set ablaze—even the train

    Runs with a fire from you in its heart.
