يا ما أحلى الصغير وأمه

تُعطيه البُزيز في فمه

Oh how sweet the little one and his mother

She gives him his pacifier in his mouth

حين يشرب بُزيزه يبقى

يطلب التُّخَيت يَلمّه

When he drinks his pacifier he remains

Asking for the mattress to cuddle him

ياما أحلى نهار تدهينه

في زيته وفي مرسينه

Oh how sweet the day she oils him

With his oil and with his balm

له سوسو على جبينه

من يأسه يزول همّه

He has a lullaby on his forehead

From his despair his worries disappear

ياما أحلاه وهو في تخته

مشدود القماط يا بخته

Oh how sweet he is when in his bed

The mosquito net stretched, what luck

والشبك يرى من تحته

ورجليه عليه يلتمّوا

And the net he sees from under it

And his legs on it curl up

هذا الوقت هذا مسعود

يا فرح هذا المولود

This time this is blissful

Oh joy this newborn

يا مولى الورى يا مقصود

فرّح به أبوه وأمه

Oh Lord of all people, oh sought out

Make his father and mother happy with him
