والطرف قد سل باتر

والطرف قد سل باتر

A rose is visible upon your two cheeks;

Roses are visible upon your cheeks,

and your glance has drawn a sharp blade.

And your gaze has unsheathed a keen blade.

ارحم قتيل جفاء

ارحم قتيل جفاء

فأنت للَه شاكر

فأنت للَه شاكر

Have mercy on one slain by coldness—

Have mercy on one slain by coldness,

for then you are grateful to God.

For you are grateful to God.
