كَتَبتُ وَقَلبي في يَدَيكَ أَسيرُ

كَتَبتُ وَقَلبي في يَدَيكَ أَسيرُ

يُقيمُ كَما شاءَ الهَوى وَيَسيرُ

يُقيمُ كَما شاءَ الهَوى وَيَسيرُ

I wrote, with my heart captive in your hands;

I wrote while my heart was captive in your hands

It stays as love wills, and journeys.

It dwells as desire decreed and journeys on

وَفي كُلِّ حينٍ مِن هَواكَ وَأَدمُعي

وَفي كُلِّ حينٍ مِن هَواكَ وَأَدمُعي

بِكُلِّ مَكانٍ رَوضَةٌ وَغَديرُ

بِكُلِّ مَكانٍ رَوضَةٌ وَغَديرُ

And at every moment, from my love for you and my tears,

In every moment of your love are my tears

there is a garden and a pool in every place.

In every place a garden and a stream
