نزلنا السِنَّ نَستَنّا

نزلنا السِنَّ نَستَنّا

وفينا من ترى حَنَّا

وفينا من ترى حَنَّا

We alighted at al-Sinn, following the customary way.

We descended to our years, we yearned,

And among us was one you could see yearning.

And in us was, as you see, tenderness,

فلما جَدَّنا اللّي

فلما جَدَّنا اللّي

لُ بذلنا بيننا دَنَّا

لُ بذلنا بيننا دَنَّا

Then, when the night cut us off—

When we struggled intensely,

—we shared a wine jar among ourselves.

We gave freely amongst us our closeness.
