إنّ قلبي طوعُ قلبكْ

كيف قل لي بعتَ عهدكْ ؟!

My heart is obedient to your heart

How can you say you have broken your vow?!

وشعوري مثلُ وردكْ

كيف تُسقي الوردَ بُعدكْ

And my feeling is like your rose

How can you water the rose in your absence

وحنيني مثلُ عطركْ

كيف تروي الشّوقَ زُهْدَكْ ؟!

And my yearning is like your fragrance

How can your indifference quench my passion?!

ياشقياً رُمتَ قتلي ..

كم أتوقُ اليومَ قتلكْ ؟!

Oh how wretchedly you sought my murder..

How much do I long today for yours?!

وظلوماً حزّ قلبي ..

ليتني سكّينُ قلبكْ

And unjustly you broke my heart..

If only I were the dagger of your heart

آه ما أقسى ضلالكْ !

من تُرى بعدي أَضلّكْ ؟!

Oh how merciless is your misguidance!

After me, whom else will you mislead?!

وجنوني من شرودكْ

ليتني ما أخترتُ حبّكْ

And my madness is from your aloofness

If only I had not chosen to love you

فلتغثني من برودكْ

هيّج الآفاقَ ضدّكْ

So save me from your coldness

Rouse the horizons against you

ولتعُدْ لي من جنونكْ

ملّ بوحي صَيْدَ حسّكْ

And return to me from your madness

Fill my inspiration with the hunt of your senses

كلّ جرحي من قيودكْ

آه من قهري وقيدكْ

Every wound I have is from your shackles

Oh from my despair and your bond
