تَغَلغَلَ حُبُّ عَثمَةَ في فُؤادي

تَغَلغَلَ حُبُّ عَثمَةَ في فُؤادي

فَباديهِ مَعَ الخافي يَسيرُ

فَباديهِ مَعَ الخافي يَسيرُ

Love for ʿAthmah has worked its way deep into my heart;

Love for ʿAthma has penetrated deep into my heart;

so what shows of it, together with what stays hidden, runs its course.

So what shows of it is little beside what lies hidden.
