بِأَيدِيهُمُ لَعِبُوا بِالوَرَق

وَفِي مُهجَتِي لَعِبُوا بِالحَدَق

With their hands they played with paper

And in my skull they played with fire

فَإن أَظهَرُوا أظهَرُوا لَوعَتِي

وَإن حَسَبُوا فَليَالِي الأرَق

So if they reveal, they reveal my agony

And if they calculate, then nights of insomnia
