ما لي أَرى فاتِني يُبدي الجَفا ما لي

ما لي عَلى هَجر مَحبوبي اِصطِبار ما لي

Why do I see my beloved showing disdain, what is wrong with me?

Why can't I endure my beloved's abandonment, what is wrong with me?

نادَيت وَالوَجد لي كاس الهيام مالي

يا حُب جد لي بِنَظرَه وَاِرحَم المُغرم

I called but found no cup of love to quench my thirst, what is wrong with me?

Oh love, grant me a glance from him and have mercy on this lover in torment.

وَإِن شئت خُذ يا جَميل مِنّي جَميع مالي

And if you wish, take everything I own, my beautiful one.
