حبيبي ان شخصك في فوأدي

حبيبي ان شخصك في فوأدي

مقيم لا يجيء ولا يروح

مقيم لا يجيء ولا يروح

My beloved, your form is indeed in my heart,

My love, your being resides in my heart,

Abiding there, neither coming nor going.

Neither coming nor going.

فانت لمقلتي يا حب نور

فانت لمقلتي يا حب نور

وانت لجسمي المضني روح

وانت لجسمي المضني روح

So you, O love, are a light to my eye,

For you are the light of my words, O love,

And you are a soul to my worn-out body.

And the spirit of my weary body.

وحق هواك لي بهواك سر

وحق هواك لي بهواك سر

بسري فيه عمري لا ابوح

بسري فيه عمري لا ابوح

And by the sanctity of loving you, I have a secret in that love;

By your love I swear, loving you is a secret,

Never in my life will I divulge my secret within it.

In it my life I confide without revealing.

اسامر فيك طول الليل فكري

اسامر فيك طول الليل فكري

بمتن من هواك له شروح

بمتن من هواك له شروح

All night I converse with my thoughts about you,

I converse with you all night in my thoughts,

Over a text of love for you, with commentaries upon it.

With desires for you explained and elucidated.

غرامي واضح والسر خاف

غرامي واضح والسر خاف

عجيب ذا الخفاء وذا الوضوح

عجيب ذا الخفاء وذا الوضوح

My passion is plain, and the secret is hidden:

My passion is evident and the secret is hidden,

How strange this concealment and this clarity!

Wondrous is this concealment and clarity.
