تُحَدِّثُ عَنّا في الوُجوهِ عُيونُنا

تُحَدِّثُ عَنّا في الوُجوهِ عُيونُنا

وَنَحنُ سُكوتٌ وَالهَوى يَتَكَلَّمُ

وَنَحنُ سُكوتٌ وَالهَوى يَتَكَلَّمُ

Our eyes speak for us upon our faces,

Our eyes speak of us in faces

while we are silent and love speaks.

While we are silence and passion talks

وَنَغضَبُ أَحياناً وَنَرضى بِطَرفِنا

وَنَغضَبُ أَحياناً وَنَرضى بِطَرفِنا

وَذَلِكَ فيما بَينَنا لَيسَ يُعلَمُ

وَذَلِكَ فيما بَينَنا لَيسَ يُعلَمُ

And sometimes we grow angry and are pleased through our gaze,

We get angry at times and become pleased with a glance

and this between us remains unknown.

And this between us isn't known

إِذا ما اِتَّقَينا رَمقَةً مِن مُبَلِّغٍ

إِذا ما اِتَّقَينا رَمقَةً مِن مُبَلِّغٍ

فَأَعيُنُنا عَنّا تُجيبُ وَتَفهَمُ

فَأَعيُنُنا عَنّا تُجيبُ وَتَفهَمُ

When we guard against an informer's glance,

If we suspect a hint from a messenger

our eyes then answer for us and understand.

Our eyes about us respond and understand

وَإِن عَرَّضَ الواشي صَفَحنا تَكَرُّماً

وَإِن عَرَّضَ الواشي صَفَحنا تَكَرُّماً

وَذو الوُدِّ عَن قَولِ العِدى يَتَكَرَّمُ

وَذو الوُدِّ عَن قَولِ العِدى يَتَكَرَّمُ

And if the tale-bearer makes insinuations, we pardon out of nobility,

And if the slanderer withdraws we pardon nobly

and one who loves rises above the words of foes.

And one of love from the enemy's talk is noble
