لسريَ في صدوركُمُ مكانٌ

خلافَ مكانِ سرِّكُمُ بصَدْري

My secret has a place within your hearts

Unlike the place your secret has within my heart

فهذا خَمرة ملأتْ زجاجاً

وذاك زجاجةٌ مُلئت بخمرِ

For this is wine that filled up a glass

And that a glass filled up with wine

فوا عجباً لذا سِرٌّ كخمرٍ

ووا عجباً لذا خمرٌ كسِرِّ

Oh, how strange that this secret is like wine

And how strange that this wine is like a secret
