يا ظَبيَةً لَطُفَت مِنّي مَنازِلُها

يا ظَبيَةً لَطُفَت مِنّي مَنازِلُها

فَالقَلبُ مِنهُنَّ وَالأَحداقُ وَالكَبِدُ

فَالقَلبُ مِنهُنَّ وَالأَحداقُ وَالكَبِدُ

O gazelle, whose dwelling places within me are delicate—

O gentle gazelle, her dwellings have departed from me,

For among them are my heart, my pupils, and my liver.

So my heart and eyes and liver are lovesick for her.

حُبّي لَكِ الناسُ طُرّاً يَشهَدونَ بِهِ

حُبّي لَكِ الناسُ طُرّاً يَشهَدونَ بِهِ

وَأَنتِ شاهِدَةٌ إِن يَثنِهِم حَسَدُ

وَأَنتِ شاهِدَةٌ إِن يَثنِهِم حَسَدُ

All people bear witness to my love for you;

People exaggerate my love for you as gossip,

And you are a witness, should envy deter them.

While you remain a witness, if their envy speaks.

لَم يَعزُبِ الوَصلُ فيما بَينَنا أَبَداً

لَم يَعزُبِ الوَصلُ فيما بَينَنا أَبَداً

لَو كُنتِ واجِدَةً مِثلَ الَّذي أَجِدُ

لَو كُنتِ واجِدَةً مِثلَ الَّذي أَجِدُ

Union would never have been absent between us,

Union between us has never been absent,

Had you felt the same as I feel.

If only you felt what I feel.
