لم يَبدُ ما قَد بدا لى الصوتُ والصيتُ

لم يَبدُ ما قَد بدا لى الصوتُ والصيتُ

واللهو في موضع ما فيه جِلِّيتُ

واللهو في موضع ما فيه جِلِّيتُ

Voice and renown have not revealed what has appeared to me,

The sound and fame that appeared to me did not begin

Nor has merrymaking in a place without Jillit.

And frivolity in a place where my seriousness was not

وكًلَّ مَن كانَ مفتونا بزوجته

وكًلَّ مَن كانَ مفتونا بزوجته

مَضمُونَ إن تَلقَهُ جِلِّتُ تَخِليتُ

مَضمُونَ إن تَلقَهُ جِلِّتُ تَخِليتُ

And anyone infatuated with his wife

And whoever was infatuated with his wife

Is sure to leave her if Jillit meets him.

I guaranteed if I met his wife I would leave her
