والله لو أَنصف الفتيان أَنفسَهم

أَعطَوْك ما ادّخروا منها وما صانوا

By God, if young men were fair to themselves,

They would give you all they had saved and protected.

ما أَنت حين تُغنّي في مجالسهم

إِلاّ نسيمُ الصَّبا والقومُ أَغصانُ

When you sing in their gatherings,

You are but the morning breeze, and they are branches swaying.
