1. دَعني وَهَوايَ واِنسكابَ الدَمعِ

    أَظهر حُرَقي عَلى رؤوس الجَمعِ

    Leave me with my passion and the pouring of tears;

    Let me reveal my burning anguish before the gathered crowd.

  2. في العِشقِ أَرى سَوادَ وَجهي فَخراً

    دَع أَكتَسِبِ النور بِهِ كالشَمعِ

    In love, I see the blackness of my face as a source of pride;

    Let me gain light through it, like a candle.
