يا من جفاني بغير ذنب

حسبي منك الصدود حسبي

O you who spurned me without fault

Your rejection is enough, enough for me

مر بي بما شئت وارع قربي

إن هواك الذي بقلبي

Pass by me as you wish, but spare my nearness

For the love of you that's in my heart

صيرني سامعا مطيعا

يا من سباني بحسن طرف

Has made me an obedient listener

O you who captivated me with a glance

سلبت عقلي بلين عطف

يكفيك ما بي صنعت يكفي

You stole my reason with your gentle grace

What you've done to me is enough, enough

اخذت عقلي ونوم طرفي

سلبتني العقل والهجوعا

You took my reason and the sleep of my eyes

You robbed me of reason and serenity

يا من نكى في الهوى فؤادي

يا غاية القصد والمراد

O you who disappointed my heart in love

O object of my quest and desire

اطلت يوم النوى سهادي

فخذ فؤادي ودع رقادي

The day of intent my passion was long

So take my heart and leave my slumber

فقال لا بل هما جميعا

فرحت والقلب في يديه

But he said no, I'll take them both

I rejoiced with my heart in his hands

وبت اهدي الكرى اليه

وصرت طوع الهوى لديه

And I began to offer wreaths to him

And I became obedient to his love

وراح مني بحال تيه

ورحت من هجره صريعا

And he left me in a lost state

And I became love-sick from his abandonment
