يا صاح إن الشموس النائيات ضحىً
أودعننيthey entrusted me with قمراًa moon سميتهI named him عمراUmar
أودعنني قمراً سميته عمرا
O friend, indeed the far-off suns at midmorning
O friend, the distant suns left me at dawn
Have entrusted me with a moon I named Umar.
A moon I named Omar
فهاso here أناI خيفةfor fear of الحسادthe envious إنif غفلتfell asleep
فها أنا خيفة الحساد إن غفلت
عيناهhis two eyes بتI spend the night عليهover him ساهراًawake حذراwary
عيناه بت عليه ساهراً حذرا
So here I am, fearing the envious: if sleep overtakes
So here I am, wary of the envious, if I am distracted
His eyes, I spend the night awake over him, wary.
His eyes would watch over it, vigilant and cautious
