قد كنت ذا كبدٍ اشقى بها ولها

قد كنت ذا كبدٍ اشقى بها ولها

فصرتُ من ولهي ذا خمس اكباد

فصرتُ من ولهي ذا خمس اكباد

Once I had a liver, suffering through it and for it.

I used to have a single sorrowful liver

Then, through my ardent love, I came to have five livers.

But for my loved ones, I now have five livers

هذي حياتي اهوالٌ اغالبها

هذي حياتي اهوالٌ اغالبها

لكي افي ام اولادي وأولادي

لكي افي ام اولادي وأولادي

This is my life: terrors I struggle against,

Such is my life, filled with struggles

So I may give the mother of my children and my children their due.

So I can fulfill my duty to my children and their children
