يا هلال استتر بوجهك عنّا

يا هلال استتر بوجهك عنّا

إن مولاك قابض بشمالي

إن مولاك قابض بشمالي

O crescent, hide your face from us.

O crescent moon, veil your face from us,

Indeed, your master is clasping my left hand.

For your master clenches his left hand.

هبك تحكي سناه خداً بخدّ

هبك تحكي سناه خداً بخدّ

قم فجئ لقدّه بمثال

قم فجئ لقدّه بمثال

Grant that you mirror his radiance, cheek for cheek;

Were you to relate the years of his cheek,

Rise, then bring a match for his stature.

Rise and come, match it with an example.
