رَوَينا فَما نَزدادُ يا رَبِّ مِن حَيّاً

رَوَينا فَما نَزدادُ يا رَبِّ مِن حَيّاً

وَأَنتَ عَلى ما في النُفوسِ شَهيدُ

وَأَنتَ عَلى ما في النُفوسِ شَهيدُ

We have drunk our fill, O Lord; let us have no more rain.

We narrate but we do not gain, O Lord, any life

And You are witness to what lies within souls.

While You are witness to what is in souls

سُقوفُ بُيوتي صِرنَ أَرضاً أَدوسُها

سُقوفُ بُيوتي صِرنَ أَرضاً أَدوسُها

وَحيطانُ داري رُكَّعٌ وَسُجودُ

وَحيطانُ داري رُكَّعٌ وَسُجودُ

The roofs of my houses have become ground I tread upon.

The ceilings of my homes have become a ground I tread

And the walls of my house are bowed and prostrate.

And the walls of my house bow down in prostration
