يَا مَنْ لَهُ فِيْ القَلْبِ مَوْطِئُ مَالِكٍ

مَاذَا يُرَجَّىَ مَالِكٌ مِنْ شَافِعِ ؟

O you who has a place in my heart

What can a mediator hope for from a master?

جَرَّبْتُ كُلَّ شَرِيْعَةٍ تُوْدِيْ إِلَىَ

عِتْقِيْ ... فَمَا قُبِلَتْ لَدَيْكَ شَرَائِعِيْ

I have tried every law that leads

To my freedom...but my laws were not accepted by you

فَارْحَمْ رَعَاكَ الله مَنْ حَفِظَ الْهَوَىَ

لاَ تُفْسِدَنَّ عَلىَّ كُلَّ ذَرَائِعْي!

So have mercy on your subject, may God protect passion

Do not ruin all my ways for me!

لَمْ يَبْقَ لِيْ غَيْرُ الدُّمُوْعِ وَمَا الْوَفَا

أَنْ أَبْكِ. يَا مَنْ تُفْتَدَىَ بِمَدَامِعِيْ

I have nothing left but tears and loyalty

To cry. O you who is ransomed by my tears

فَاطْلِقْ سَرَاحَ القَلْبِ إِنْ تَكُ فَاعِلاً

أَوْ فَاشْرِهِ مِنَّيْ !.. وَلَسْتُ بِبَائِعِ !

So release the heart's freedom if you will do so

Or buy it from me!.. For I am not a seller!
