تغيّر الناسُ يا أمّي وضاقَ بِنا
قلبٌ على ضيقِ دنيانا رفدناهُ
The people have changed, oh my mother, and it has become difficult for us
A heart in the straitness of our world we have supplied to it
ماذا تبدّلَ يا أمّاه فانقطعَتْ
أغلى الرسائلِ من قلبٍ وصلنَاهُ
What has changed, oh mother, that the most precious messages
From a heart we had connected to it were cut off
تغيّر النّاسُ ؟! أم عنّا يغرّبُنا ؟!
شعور قلبٍ معَ الذكرى وأَدناهُ
Have the people changed?! Or does the feeling of strangeness in us make us feel estranged?!
The feeling of a heart along with memory we have brought it closer
