يا رامي القلب حسبك
فقد اصيب محبك
O heart shooter, enough
For your lover has been hit
اقصيته وهو صب
أقصى أمانيه قربك
You have abandoned him while he is enduring
His greatest wish was your nearness
لم لا يرق عليه
كرقة الخد قلبك
Why doesn't your heart
Soften like your cheek
يا ريم في أي واد
قد كان يرتع سربك
O Reem in which valley
Did your flock graze
من الحشا لك مرعى
ومن دموعي شربك
You had pasture from my love
And your water was my tears
لم يبق طرفك قلبا
الا غدا وهو نهبك
No eye of yours left a heart
Without making it your prey
يا طرفه أي عضب
من الصوارم عضبك
O your glance what anger
Is sharper than your swords
يا ظالماً ليس يرثى
الله ربي وربك
O unjust one may no one grieve
God is my Lord and yours
بخلت حتى بطيف
به يعلل صبك
You were so stingy you denied me
The ghost to cure my love sickness
عن مضجعي قد تجافى
جنبي ومهد جنبك
You turned away from my bed
While yours cradled you
يا عاذلي خل عذلي
فان سمعي حربك
O you who accused me, leave my suffering be
For my hearing is deafened by your war
فغير دينك ديني
وغير شعبي شعبك
Change your religion to be my religion
And change your people to be my people
