بفترةِ أجفانِكَ الفاتِرَه

بفترةِ أجفانِكَ الفاتِرَه

ولحظةِ مقلتكَ الساحرَه

ولحظةِ مقلتكَ الساحرَه

By the languor of your languid eyelids,

With your languid eyelids

And the glance of your enchanting eye,

And your bewitching glance

وحُسنِ سوالفِكَ المشرقاتِ

وحُسنِ سوالفِكَ المشرقاتِ

نوراً ووجنتِكَ الناضِرَه

نوراً ووجنتِكَ الناضِرَه

And the beauty of the sides of your neck, radiant

And the radiance of your cheerful talk

With light, and your blooming cheek—

Your bright, glowing cheeks shed light

خَفِ اللَه في دنفٍ هائمٍ

خَفِ اللَه في دنفٍ هائمٍ

على قلبهِ دارتِ الدائِرَه

على قلبهِ دارتِ الدائِرَه

Fear God in your treatment of a lovesick man, bewildered by love,

Have mercy, God, on a wandering soul

Upon whose heart the wheel of misfortune has turned.

Whose heart is tossed about

فأنتَ الذِّي رُعتهُ بالنوى

فأنتَ الذِّي رُعتهُ بالنوى

وأبكيتَ مقلتَهُ الساهِرَه

وأبكيتَ مقلتَهُ الساهِرَه

For you are the one who frightened him with separation

For you are the one who tended it with purpose

And made his sleepless eye weep.

And made its wakeful eyes weep
