قاسَيْتُ بِكَ الغَرامَ والوَجْدَ سِنينْ

ما بَيْنَ بُكاءٍ وَحَنين وأَنينْ

For years I've endured love and passion for you

Between weeping, yearning, and moaning too

أُرْضِيكَ وَمَا تَزْدادُ إِلّا غَضَباً

اللَّه كما أَبْلى بِكَ القَلْب يُعينْ

I try to please you but you only get more upset

God, how you've exhausted my heart, come aid me anew
