عانقني حتى الصباحِ الصباحْ

عانقني حتى الصباحِ الصباحْ

وقلت من بُرَحِ الهَوى لاَ بَرَاحْ

وقلت من بُرَحِ الهَوى لاَ بَرَاحْ

He embraced me until morning—morning!

Embrace me until the morning, the morning

And from love’s anguish I said, “No parting!”

And you said from the serenity of passion, no serenity

ولم يزل خدِّي عَلَى خدِّه

ولم يزل خدِّي عَلَى خدِّه

وَهَذِه عَادَتُه في المِلاَح

وَهَذِه عَادَتُه في المِلاَح

And my cheek remained against his cheek,

And my cheek did not cease to be on his cheek

And this is his habit with the beautiful.

And this is his habit in intimacy
