مَالي نُسِيتُ وَكُنْتُ مِن

مَحْفُوظِكُمْ كالفَاتِحَه

Why have I been forgotten, when I was

Among your protected ones like Al-Fatiha,

وَغَدَتْ تُكبلني القَري

نةُ وَهََيَ عِنْكُمْ نَازِحَه

And estrangement has shackled me, though it

Has departed from you, a departer,

لكِنْ بَعِيدُ الوِدّ حَ

قُّ يَدٍ بِطيب الرَّائِحَه

But the beloved of old is truly a hand

With a sweet fragrance.
